It's twice as good.

...and c# is pointedly better! Hmmm... that doesn't work, sharp ---> points... but there isn't much use of pointers directly so that may be a bad analogy and therefore an even worse pun! However, with puns, the worst is the best so, yeah!
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

Everything you said is nonsense and gibberish and yet I perfectly understood you.

Are you a VB Code reviewer? :p

VB Code is actually very easy to understand but you're right, the code written by some people in VB is atrocious.

you can write bad code in any language, and as a programmer of 35 years ive seen more of it than u can shake a stick at, and as far as the VB v c# argument goes, it all compiles to the same IL anyway, the skill is in the programmers interpretation and solution, not for c# snobs to blindly say that its somehow 'better' - its a subjective argument

+5. I agree.

C# is better because # is composed of four pluses, therefore 4 times better than C:

No, sorry not 4x+s or sharp but hash...
C was so good MS had to make a ... of it
|
|
|
|

No, it's because it is a half tone above C.
|
|
|
|

Ah, but you can optimize those pluses and make the # with only two distorted pluses.

OK, now say something new.

C is still my favorite language. Most likely always will be. Took me years to migrate to C++ because any decent C programmer knows you can apply some OOP concepts to C. That being said, I think C++ is a great language, not so much in syntax for the STL, but overall.
If I'm keen to write a game or something extremely computationally intensive, I'd choose C every time. So he's right on that point. I know you can write C in C++ blah blah blah, but when in Rome. Anyway, the biggest disadvantage C has is it's getting crusty. Not many modern libraries for it or additions to the language like some of the goodies C++ 11 got.
If I'm writing a web application, I'd still go with something like PHP over C simply because of the amount of pre-existing libraries out there for that purpose I wouldn't have to reinvent the wheel. Unless it was meant to serve millions of users, then I'd write it in C regardless, much like how parts of YouTube are.

I watched programming languages evolve for years, becoming steadily more efficient, powerful, readable and maintainable up to the epitome, Turbo Pascal 5.5. Then came C, and the death spiral of useful language development began. The devolution continues...;P

Nah, BASIC came first by 5 years!
