Is this a true statement: Part III

[MDK]

Hello,

Ok, I rescind my previous conclusion that the answer to this question,
"Python can do everything C++ can do but just slower." is "Excluding writing
device drivers the answer is a clear yes."

The thing that I found interesting about the Part II posts were the positive
things said about the C language.  Is C that much different than C++?  Why
the leaning towards C over C++?  I thought C++ was supposed to be the 'New
and Improved C.'

Thanks.
