How to ride a unicycle :-)

Why? What possible advantage does it confer?

No, when switching to C, a good C++ developer needs to learn all about
how to re-use code. That is the heart of C.


And for C++ how to drive a Formula 1 car.

C++ programmers don't drive; they derive.

Whoever cross-posted this was asking for trouble, whether they realised
it or not.

hmmm.... better add: lose your sense of humour, to the list of
attributes a C++ developer needs when switching to C I guess!

If you didn't find my reply amusing, you've already lost it. Read it again,
this time with your brain switched on.

Oh I see. Like laugh or I'll smash yer face in?

hmm.. I guess that is the kind of attitude you end up with, if you have
to code in C all the time.
