Les Hatton, who is a leading proponent of the use of C for safety-
related systems, has said concerning C++: "the safest approach is
simply to throw away everything and use a safer subset of C alone" and
"use of this language in any application involving high-integrity is
discouraged as recent measurements suggest that it does not
beneficially affect the defect density".
