    Question Which one is better? C++ or C?

    Hi all.
    I am currently learning C++, but I was wondering what advantages C has, and how they compare overall to C++, i.e. which programming language is better.
    Everyone feel free to offer your opinions.

    1. Continue to learn C++.
    2. Learn C.
    3. Compare to decide which suits the given job better, or if another tool is appropriate.

    If you really want silly comparisons of "which programming language is better", go search the Web. My programming language is better than yours. Enough said.

"Finding the smallest program that demonstrates the error" is a powerful debugging tool.
