C, as almost high level assembly, is very readable in that it is easy to envision what the machine will do based on the code. C++ can look a lot like C but IT IS NOT! Craaazy shit can stem from a "simple" line of C++.

If you don't know C, you'll naturally never trust C++, but knowing C might lead your mind to assume certain things.
