Planning to switch from c to c++; I'm really exited to read this.
@commenter: The word switch doesn't have to rely on relevance between subjects it is referring to. It has more to do with the speed of changing the direction.
- baq 13y agoi suggest you phrase it 'planning to learn c++' - there's hardly any switching from C if you plan to write modern C++, because there's hardly any C in it.
- vonmoltke 13y agoThat has been my problem with C++. When I took my classes that used it[1], the ink was still wet on the original standard. After that, I spent years writing real-time C, with the occasional foray into "C with classes" territory. I can't seem to shake that foundation and "learn" C++ again. [1] I'm an EE/borderline CompE so I only had three.
- pjmlp 13y agoI got into C++ around 1993, after a brief contact with C, comming from Z80, 68000, Turbo Basic/Turbo Pascal. C++ gave me a stronger type system and the abstraction capabilities to write safe code, namespaces as poor man module system. Given what I was already used to from former languages, I never liked pure C. Did used it lots of times when requested to do so, though.
