I tried growing a beard

...but I ended up taking my pants off too much.

Why do people use C when there's C++ anyway? C is so... unorganised.

"Why do people use C when there's C++ anyway? C is so... unorganised."

Lol...it's exactly the opposite.  C is simple and clean, there's one way to accomplish any task and few exceptions to the rules.  A complete and exhaustive description of C fits in the ~100 page kernighan and richie book.

C++ tacks a couple of things onto C that makes it a much a less elegant language IMO.

The bottom line is if you want to do procedural programming use C and if you want to do object oriented programming use java.

Java is a pure OO language and this adds a lot in terms of clarity and consistency of syntax.

That said, both C and C++ are saddled with a couple of anachronicities(gotchas) having to do with the way pointers are handled and which data types are first class that makes them seem much trickier than they really are.  Ones you know those the languages are cake.
