Not quite - C is predicable(ish). It would be like C vs Asm if there was no stable language spec, platform spec, or compiler.

I think it’s more like WYSIWYG website generators (anyone remember Cold Fusion? The biz guys LOVED that - for like a year).



Cold Fusion isn't WYSIWYG (although it was intended to eventually be, and that never panned out haha), are you thinking of DreamWeaver or MS FrontPage?


I must be remembering the marketing copy and not how well it worked out.
