> By the end of the high school, students are only using very basic C-syntax: variables, arrays, functions, and a couple of functions from the standard library.
if the goal is to have them writing C-style C++ code, why not just use C? or if the goal is to teach C++, why start with only the features available in C?
I've been a TA for classes in both C and C++, and I think we ultimately do a disservice to these students by not treating these languages more separately.
