I used to write programs using Turbo Pascal, but recently I have
changed to Turbo C. One thing I don't like for Turbo C is that the
executable code for the program of same purpose is larger in C than in
pascal. Is this generally true or is there a way to avoid this?

Also, if I added in an irrelevent function to a program (the other
function won't have any link to this added-in function at all), the
code becomes larger accordingly. Could anyone tell me why?

thanks in advance,
