Points where C is different from other languages:

 1 - We need to create a lot of basic code, data structures
     compared with other languages like C++, Java, C#...

     So, for instance, we need to choose a methodology to test
     this basic code. We need to build the program and see if
     the ideas are working. Before to make the perfect
     data structure we need to move forward implement other parts.
     Then latter it is time to put more attention on the basic
     code we had created some months ago and trying to move forward
     incrementally. This can happen in any language but in C this 
     is very common. strings, dynamic arrays, error codes..


 2 - There is no common (universal) pattern for libraries or for code 
     organization build etc etc.
     Some languages like C# that has a big framework you can just
     copy the way the framework is implemented. Languages with modules
     also creates a common pattern for usage and distribution.

 3  - In C everything is very customized. If you have to create something
      then you create just what you use and for the specif cases.
      This is an advantage in terms of size and performance, but at the
      same time customized code can be difficult to reuse.
      Personally I reuse code but I change it a little each time I reuse.
