I have a bad memory of B. I went for an interview at the Genome Project
in Cambridge.
They wanted a B programme re-written in C++. It came down to the last
two. 
I submitted an STL programme which was a general solution to their
problem, scalable etc.
The competition submitted something that 'looked' better, because it
didn't use an hpp file but an h and an implementation and lots of pretty
macros.
You can guess who was chosen, right?
W***ers.
