- This raised a question in my mind which has nothing to do with Ada but
- with C/C++. For the past several years I subscribed to a magazine
- published by the C Users Group (R&D Publications) called the C/C++ Users
- Journal. It used to be called the C Users Journal but was renamed to
- include C++, since which time its ouput is oriented <ahem!> by as much
- as 80 percent towards C++.
-
- It must be very satisfying for the C++ programmer; his needs are served
- by both forms. But, like Jeff, I too have little need or motivation
- for C++, so this year I cancelled my subscription. Anyone know of a good
- magazine dedicated to C Users?
