C and C++ were the first languages I learned and I think that it's a terrific model. So powerful. But many C/C++ programmers aren't able to code properly (or accident prone, or code drunk). Thus we have found we need languages where power is limited, because people write code with memory leaks, with errors, and other bugs that can bring down an entire operating system ::coughs:: windows ::coughs:: windows :: coughs ::. Of course I suppose it could be argued if human brains could support programming in assembly we would have much more efficient programs. :-) -Dan -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
