== Language Features ==

I was taught that C ''always'' passes parameters by value, and that it simulates pass-by-reference by passing (by value) the address of the entity being referred to. I suppose it is the difference between passing a thing and passing the name of the thing… —[[User:Dkf|Dkf]] 10:07, 31 May 2009 (UTC)

"C++" and "C plus plus" should be merged. Sgeier 18:51, 1 February 2007 (EST)

Yes, they should, but I can't get to the C++ articles right now--I don't even know how someone managed to create them! This version of MediaWiki (1.8.2) doesn't support the creation of pages with + in their name. I'm going to upgrade this weekend to 1.9.1, which does support it. Merging C++ and C plus plus will be the first thing I do.
It's been bugging me since I started the projecct, but when I found out how to fix the + problem, traffic was still too high for me to take the site down long enough to do the upgrade. --Short Circuit 19:10, 1 February 2007 (EST)

C++ problem

I can't get to the C++ page. You can try it on that link there. It just takes you to C. RCBF(C++) has a problem too: http://rosettacode.org/wiki/RCBF_(C++) --Mwn3d 10:25, 7 February 2008 (MST)

Language Features
