    If you do C, and avoid pointers, do tell me what the point is using the language at all?

    I mean if memory management is “the only way to shoot yourself in the foot” in C, then thats a quite big part of the language!

        C is like one big problem then :-D

        C++ lots of smaller problems: divide & conquer baby!
