    If you manually hand optimize every line of code, C and C++ are identical. That’s a worthless discussion to have. The point is that you can write in C++ high level code that would require substantial code duplication to match the speed in C, as C just doesn’t offer the tools for that level of abstraction.

      …so now we are discussing not speed again but ease of use.

      Not everything with an R in it is faster than C. Read up about it. Everyone says so.

      I’m out.
