But C has while loops and for loops. It doesn’t need these, given
an
if statement and goto.It also has all those redundant comparison operators. Why have both
<=, >, and >= when all you need is < and =?And of course it has all those redundant bit operators: all you
need
is & and ~.And so on…
Well, those are all rather extreme examples of course. The reason to
have those operators in C is that they provide some value over the
“long way”.
How much (real) value does #indexes offer over #indices? I THINK
that’s what he was getting at.
