C++ is useful when learning Rust since a lot of documentation assumes the reader is familiar with C++ and there’s plenty of C++ documentation that has no pre-requisites.
- jmgrosen 12y agoHmm. I learned Rust without any C++ knowledge (though I did have a fair amount of experience with C), and it was pretty easy. Recently I've had to start writing some C++ (to my dismay), and it has not been so easy... the language is really complex.
- wycats 12y agoI think things have changed :) Steve Klabnik has been doing a ton of work on the docs, and that has brought a lot of "coming from an HLL" perspective to them.
- jmgrosen 12y agoHm, I learned it more than a year ago now (and have kept up), so it was before Steve's time :) Also, I'm coming mainly from a C background, not higher-level language.
- steveklabnik 12y agoWell, before my time being paid anyway :)
