It's been said before, but it deserves to be said again: there is no such
language as "C/C++". There are two separate languages, C and C++, which in
many respects are as different as night and day. This is especially true
in the context of Ada -- for C has almost nothing in common with Ada, while
C++ has a good deal in common with Ada. This lumping together is especially
frustrating in things like Greg Aharonian's (or anybody's) language usage
analyses, because there's a real question as to how much C++ is actually being
used out there.
