Interesting to note the difference between C and C++ with regards to the '*' and '&' keys.

I know there is a lot of raw pointer and address usage in C, but I'm surprised at how little these keys show up in C++.

It's good to see that people are taking advantage of smart pointers ;)

(It's subtle though, so I could be reading too much into it).

Seems odd that < and > are said to be used more in C than in C++ (templates).
