although stdio.h covers more than fstream, such as console output with printf()

.. which is what iostream is for

There recently was a thread about this, try searching for it.

Personally, I prefer the C++ streams, because they are cleaner, safer, and more coherent. But that''s just what it is, I guess, personal preference (trying to avoid a religious war at all costs here

)
