It has grabbed and maintained complete domination of nearly all performance sensitive code in games and desktop software, for nearly a generation now which is an unprecedented reign in computing history. That's a pretty good start to me.
- ericb 16y agoAre you saying that the complete domination claim is also true in comparison to C?
- zedshaw 16y agoYes, I think this is the funniest thing about C++. Everyone who loves it thinks it's the most popular language...well except when compared to C. Basically, until you can kill C your language really isn't that popular. It's a fad by comparison.
- kragen 16y agoI don't know if he's saying that, but yes, nearly all performance-sensitive code in games and desktop software is written in C++, not C. Objective-C seems to be edging in.
- mfukar 16y agoNo. You are mistaken.
