Sibling Rivalry: C and C++
نویسنده
چکیده
This article presents a view of the relationship between K&R C’s most prominent descendants: ISO C and ISO C++. It gives a rough chronology of the exchanges of features between the various versions of C and C++ and presents some technical details related to their most significant current incompatibilities. My focus here is the areas where C and C++ differ slightly (‘‘the incompatibilities’’), rather than the large area of commonality or the areas where one language provide facilities not offered by the other. In addition to presenting incompatibilities, this paper briefly discusses some implications of these incompatibilities, reflects on the ‘‘Spirit of C’’ and ‘‘Spirit of C++’’ notions, and states some opinions about the relationship between C and C++. This article is written in support of the view that C/C++ incompatibilities can and should be eliminated.

Sibling rivalry occurs when siblings compete for parental investments.

We test the hypothesis that the value of child labor in home production contributes to rivalry by comparing households that differ ...
متن کاملLife history consequences of mammal sibling rivalry.
Mammal life history traits relating to growth and reproduction are extremely diverse. Sibling rivalry may contribute to selection pressures influencing this diversity, because individuals that are relatively large at birth typically have an advantage in competition for milk. However, selection for increased growth rate is likely to be constrained by kin selection and physiological costs. Here, ...
