Answer / sathish kumar

Hi All,

U can write many programs which will compile in C and not
in C++. Sample program.

const i; /* this is possible in C but not in C++ */
const int i; // it should be done like this in C++.

Answer / mms zubeir

There are some features in C that are truncated in C++. To
quote a few,

1. const int pi; // allowed in C.
const int pi = 3.14; // equivalent in C++.

2. char name[10];
for(int index = 0; index < 50; ++index)
{
scanf("%s", &name[index]); // sorry, I am weak in C.
}

This is allowed in C. That is, the array range checking
is not done in C. In C++, it will throw an out of range
error.

3. void function()
{
....
}

int main()
{
function(299);
return 0;
}

This is allowed in C but not in C++.
