Ah, I disagree. I think C supports function overload. As an example, take the fcntl function in Linux API. That C-pure POSIX-standard function, used for locking files, is declared as follows: #include <unistd.h> #include <fcntl.h> int fcntl(int fd, int cmd); int fcntl(int fd, int cmd, long arg); int fcntl(int fd, int cmd, struct flock* lock); I think that is function overloaded. I'm I missing something?
