"C = Pascal" is false.

"C = f(Pascal)" is true.

Proof by observation.  See Whitesmith's "Pascal-to-C" Translator.
This is not a trivial program (ala' "/bin/cat"), but a full-blown
piece of coding.

My conjecture, that there exists no inverse for "f", can be proved
as an exercise by the reader.

Not afraid to prove my name,
