I'm counting the number of characters needed to express the function. Since one of BM's claims is that the C++ example was smaller than C.

That was a general statement about C++ and not on my code. I'm using
abstractions like iterators for the benefit of bounds-checking while
debugging but the code is similar.
But usually you write in C++ a fifth or less code. Look what s simple
vector<T>::emplace_back() saves work over manually relocating a complex
vector-like data structure in C. Or consider how convenient a map or
unordered_map is over f.e. sth. like with libavl.
This stupid character-counting from a simple example shows that Bart
has no professional C++ experience.

The difference between the two columns is whether indentation uses hard tabs or spaces. The C version is more deeply indentated so that makes a difference. (Also the width of the tabs, but everything was measured with tabs set to 4 characters.)

That's as ridiculous as Barts's discussion.
