C++ is almost a perfect superset of old C before C99. There are odd corner cases where prograns are parsed differently, but these are quite contrived. The 3rd edition of The C++ Programming language lists a few cases. Since then, C has had may additions to the language that made it diverge from C++. Your linked article is almost entirely about these new C additions.

Even for the old C it wasn't a superset.

There are plenty of legal C programs that aren't legal C++ - if for nothing else, then because C++ has more reserved keywords which are perfectly legal identifier names in C.

E.g. this is legal C but not legal C++:

int template = 10;
