U.C. San Diego Lines: 7 Naturally, C++ must now be called C, and our familiar C is now old C. The use of the term C++ has caused the problem, since it has a side effect of modifying the referent of the term C. If only the authors of the system had used the name C+1, we could have avoided this unnecessary and confusing side effect. Be warned! -Greg
