Here's a list of mildly interesting things about the C language that I learned over time. There are many more mildly interesting features of C++, but the language is literally known for being weird, whereas C is usually considered smaller and simpler, so this is (almost) only about C.

1. Combined type and variable/field declaration, inside a struct scope [https://godbolt.org/g/Rh94Go]

struct foo {
   struct bar {
       int x;
   } baz;
};

struct Foo<'a> {
    a: String,
    b: &'a str,
}

impl<'a> Foo<'a> {
    fn new() -> Foo<'a> {
        Foo { a: String::new(), b: "" }
    }
