MSFT was the same (at least the corner of it that I knew). We called it "C, with classes".
I never apply to C++ jobs despite those 6 years of experience because I think my knowledge there is stuck in 1999 and I have no idea about the STL.
- sqeaky 4y agoLearning the language fundamentals robustly is the hard part, and everyone has incomplete knowledge. The C++ standard library is easy to learn for someone in your position. If you want to, start with something like iterator pairs and few trial problems, it will feel just like pointer arithmetic then the standard algorithms will be easy. I have tried to focus on C++ during my career and I still haven't even touched ranges or needed about half the std algorithms.
