    Sure, but, with Pascal, and already with Algol,  some of C
weaknesses were absent of the syntax:

    := as assignment operator

    no implicit type conversion

    an assignment hasn't a value   --  I think a flag for C compilers
to forbid this would catch many bugs

    array indexes start at 1 by default
