Just a nitpick, could we also please stop conflating C and C++ 
programmers? My experience is that C++ programmer are completely 
clueless when it comes to C programming? They think they know C 
but it's generally far away. The thing is, that C has evolved 
with C99 and C11 and the changes have not all been adopted by C++ 
(and Microsoft actively stalling the adoption of C99 in Visual C 
didn't help either).
