Is there something we can do in C but not in C++? Declare variable names that are keywords in C++..

Answer / ruth

Aside from a few minor differences, there's nothing C can
do that C++ can't. About the only things I can think of are:

int foo = Something();

int array[ foo ]; // C++ can't do this, but C can IIRC


Of course C++ provides alternatives to do the same thing:

vector<int> array(foo); // similar code in C++


C is more friendy for making external libraries. A DLL
compiled in C will likely work in any C/C++ program made in
any other C/C++ compiler. Whereas DLLs made with C++ often
only work in C++ programs made in the same C++ compiler
