Which raises a question for the future: After we get tired of tagging
all those "+" symbols on the end of C, will the next language we need
to learn be called "D" (next letter in the alphabet after B and c) or
"P" (next letter in the "BCPL" series)?
D, definitely. "P" and "L" have already appeared, albeit together: "PL/1."
Dr. Dobb's has already had a series of articles about D.
Have fun,
