This is true -- references were added in C++ but don't exist in "plain" C.
However, passing pointers as parameters gives (almost) the same semantics,
provided that proper care is taken to dereference the pointers.  However, this
little detail has little to do with the essential parts of the O.P.'s question,
which is why I didn't address it before.
