Converting C to C++ is pretty easy. The compiler will point out the few
areas in which legal C code is illegal C++ code. The conversion process
could well even uncover some bugs.

C++ never "caused" anyone to do anything. :) Idiots write idiotic programs,
and it's true that if you give them more power, the potential for idiocy is
that much greater.

However, I'm talking about people who are not idiots, as well as those who
know C++.
