I learned C++ with GCC cli in Linux in high school 2007, in Kerala, India. My college had Sun thin client desktop with an extremely outdated GCC so I was helping when teachers were stuck helping. Our college system is such that you take a fixed syllabus for 4 years so people get daunted at first programming subject and nurse their coping mechanisms for 3 years.
