I don't know if my situation is strange but I would like to know if I am 
alone.  I have been coding in C++ for about 3 years now.  I started with 
2 C++/OOP classes (intro and advanced).  I feel pretty comfortable with 
C++.  BUT, I got a job with a company that ONLY codes in C.  I didn't 
think that this was a big deal but I have been finding out that it isn't 
as easy as I thought to learn straight C after using C++ so much.

Is this strange?  Let me put this into perspective:  I did not know how 
to use malloc!  All I ever knew about was new and delete.  Can someone 
please tell me that I am not the only person in the world in this 
situation!?  I mean, my professors never made it seem important to know 
both inside and out, but I think I might be paying for it now.  I can't 
tell you how hard declaring for loop vars out of the loop is for 
me! :)

I would very much like any type of feedback you might want to share with 
me.  If you feel like flaming me because you think I am an idiot (which 
might be the case in this instance) I do have a 3.9/4.0 GPA (which 
doesn't mean I am smart, it means that I am dedicated).  I just want to 
hear what experienced programmers think I should do:  What is the fastest 
way to get up to speed?  Are there texts on going from C++ to C?

Thank you for your time and consideration,
Reed
