C Finally Gets A New Standard
I don't really know C++ as well as I know C - could you explain? I always thought that the only real reason C++ wasn't a superset is because of the additional keywords.

C++ doesn't coerce the void* malloc returns into an int* , C does. You have to write
int* foo = (int*)malloc(sizeof(int));
in C++ or the compiler gives a type error.
