A89: C/C++ [slightly OT]
I went back to Barnes and Noble today and took a look at Stroustroup's
book - here's some C code that is different in C++, from appendix B of the
book:
c = a//*d*/b
;
is interpreted as "c = a;" in C++ and "c = a/b;" in C
Also, in C++ sizeof('b') == sizeof(char), while in C sizeof('b') ==
sizeof(int)
There's some real code that a normal person might actually write that could
be misinterpreted there having to do with the discrepancies in C's sloppy
type system (roughly paraphrased), but I didn't understand them. Does
anyone have the book?
