That can't possibly be true. Everything that can be done in C can be done in C++, and more.

I'm speaking about rewrites in "C++ style", not simple "recompile with g++" rewrites.
They do tend to shrink amount of lines of code quite significantly.

You're contradicting yourself. Wol said "if it takes 10 lines of C++ or 100 lines of C", you said "it's the other way around..", and now you're saying that rewrites in C++ style tend to shrink the amount of code.

Yes, rewrites in modern C++ tend to shrink code significantly compared to plain C. There's no contradiction.

Uh, yes there is, unless my english parser is utterly broken, but I don't think so.
