it is not the C language that is the problem, it is the programmers who are using it that are the problem. they are not educated in good programming practices. most people who want to be programmers should never be allowed to become programmers. unfortunately right now lots of narcissistic nerds want to become programmers because they think it's glamorous somehow.
