Rust replacing C/C++

Question

Is Rust replacing C and will it completely eradicate C? I am asking this because Rust has some major advantages, particularly in memory management and a very active community.

Answer 1

No, or at least not any time soon.

Many languages were supposed to replace C++ throughout its lifetime and, obviously, none have.

C is very difficult to replace because a lot of things rely too heavily on it and C just works and works well.
Even C++ hasn't replaced C!

In my experience, i see rust as more of a "hobby" or "community" language (not really used widely in industry compared to C and C++) and people that use Rust and C++ are more likely to replace C++ with Rust

If every industry that uses C and/or C++ switched to Rust, only then will Rust replace them

As an aside, C and C++ are not the same.
C/C++ is used by people who don't know much about C and/or C++ ;)
