There are some other things that were fixed in later versions: Single namespace for structure and union members No function argument type checking There are some things that haven't been fixed: const Operators (particularly * & | ^) And some things that have been "fixed" in C++ enum checking A lot of the problems with C are due to the extremely small computer that it had to fit into in the early days. The other contemporary languages that we have been comparing it with ran on much bigger machines.
