Hi...

I am relativ new to the impressive and powerfull C language, but i thinks it is obsolete...

The idea with header/source files where methods can clash into eachother i don't like... Look at C# which is much cleaner with namespaces.

Why has C not namespaces and a "area idea" where some methods and fields could be hidden from the outside?

Something like:

a_source_file.c:

namespace SomeName(.SomeName)
{
area Stack
{
private int[] myStack;

private void someMethod() {};

public void push(int i) {};
public int pop() {};
}
}

another_source_file.c:

using SomeName(.SomeName);

int main(int argc, char[] *argv)
{
Stack.push(10);
System.printf(Stack.pop());
}

I'm really annoyed ;) Is im the only own with that point of view?

If i was a really good programmer (which i'm not... yet! ;)) i would developed a compiler and a much more simple (but still impressive and powerfull) c...

Best and kindest regards

Hmm... Let's stop the discussion know. I'm feeling some of you don't like me because of my point of view. My only intend was to know what other programmers think.

And again i don't hate C, there is just something i don't like so much.
