C++ is the poster child for this. No one argues that C++ is a bad language just because the standard library is full of magic.
- jbooth 12y agoActually, I hold exactly that opinion about C++ :)
- 72deluxe 12y agoI find the STL great! Sure, some compiler template messages can be tricky to understand but STL doesn't detract from C++ - you don't have to use the STL (but you're probably losing out if you don't use it and roll all those containers and algorithms yourself)
- com2kid 12y agoOh using the STL itself is fine, but some of the code behind it looks like a completely different language!
