If you seriously think C is THE best programming language you should simply be banned from writing code. Seriously. C is completely memory unsafe, all languages which are memory safe surpass it by default.



I do not think C (or any other programming language) is the best programming language. However, I think that the memory safety often gets in the way, and that even if it is helpful (which it often is), memory safety is not the only important or helpful feature anyways.
