Re: [Haskell-cafe] Functions are first class values in C
It is true, however, that preprocessing used to be (in pre-standard days) separate from the language. This has not been true for decades.
Well, I've seen cpp to be used as a preprocessor not for C sources but for something else.

And I'm sure you've heard people cursing cpp for being too C centric :) In any case, it doesn't matter. The question was, if the C preprocessor was part of the C language, not whether C is the only thing it's used for. -- Antti-Juhani Kaijanaho, Jyväskylä, Finland http://antti-juhani.kaijanaho.fi/newblog/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/antti-juhani/
