Of course in C++ you can just use a vector. Object Pascal is certainly closer to C++ than C.
The main advantage of Pascal is super fast compilation, but C++ modules should close that gap once they make it into the standard.
- pjmlp 9y agoWhich is why C++ became my next favourite language after Pascal, and I joined the C++ side of the C++ vs C USENET "arguments".
- klipt 9y agoYeah, I loved programming in Delphi back in the day, but I feel like the language isn't evolving much at this point, whereas C++ is a living language (even if it moves bureaucratically slowly) that will eventually have most of the features we want ... plus a bunch of warts we don't really want but have to keep for backwards compatibility :-)
