Date: March 16th, 2018 7:53 PM Author: Sadistic Peach Box Office Why C++? It is old and a victim of complexity. If you're gonna do this then just learn C or one of its derivatives like C#, Swift, Java
Better yet, actually learn computer science rather than just the syntax of a particular language. |
|
Date: March 16th, 2018 8:42 PM Author: unhinged round eye Obviously you need to be good at CS. but learning a language isn’t just syntax, especially C++. You need to learn the template library, common design patterns and the associated frameworks like boost, also all the the idiosyncrasies.
C++ is used widely for low-latency programming. If you can do that you make bank. Problem is that that kind of programming takes real expertise. |

am I too late? is this language obsolete? |
|
Date: March 16th, 2018 8:54 PM Author: unhinged round eye Probably if you’re not a coder already bro
It’s not going anywhere as a language though. Nothing OBject oriented is faster |

C# is superior to Java at this point. .NET Core also frees you from Windows. |
