    What the "better" language solve is the risk of programmer error, a
rather high risk in both C and C++.  Also, a high level language like
Ada eases the maintenance of large programs.

    But in any case the language does not solve the problem of stack
protection, for example. Don't forget, also,  that all languages rely
upon the C runtime library, which is an essential layer between
applications and the kernel. This is why the work of people writing C
runtime libraries is absolutely critical.
