Posted February 17, 200520 yr which is better? becuse my friend told me that i should use CSS easy 2 use etc but is C++ better? plz help thx
February 17, 200520 yr CSS is cascading fucking style sheet, um.. generally used with websites.... and that's about it. C++ is a compiled language that can do just about anything. I think your friend and/or you are on crack.
February 17, 200520 yr Author Well i thank u 4 that. u can't tell with me mate if he is stonded or not.
February 17, 200520 yr lets say windows XP was written in C++, so everything u do in windows...can be done on C++
February 17, 200520 yr which is better? becuse my friend told me that i should use CSS easy 2 use etc but is C++ better? plz help thx *gasp*
February 18, 200520 yr its mostly written in C with minor amounts of C++ and its basics are pure assembly
February 18, 200520 yr ok....i read on some site where it said windows XP is fully written in C++....dunno y they would write some shit up then......o well i just dont get y they didnt write the majority of it in C++ since its the "better C"
February 18, 200520 yr because operating systems have a different language than other compilers I think... I've not looked intot hat though, so I couldn't tell you. I'm not looking into it either until I get to that class...
February 18, 200520 yr o well...o yea i took tech in school instead of business but some of my friends told me tat Bill Gates started Microsoft...n tat he "stole" the source code for a computer and changed it around a bit...is tat true? i dont think he started Microsoft cuz somewhere i read tat his friend started it...
February 19, 200520 yr Ever hear of "Pirates of Silicone Valley?" Google it. Or google bill gates, microsoft, and bios of such shit. We aren't your personal references for everything related to programming. You have to go out on a limb if you want to find stuff out. That means research on your own. /sv_quit_posting dark_urza 1 /kill dark_urza 1 kthxbye

February 19, 200520 yr :stupid: *Sighs* I hate having to teach "living for dummies..." Let me emphasize, again, for your retarded ass... Ever hear of "Pirates of Silicone Valley?" Google it.

February 19, 200520 yr :stupid: *Sighs* I hate having to teach "living for dummies..." Let me emphasize, again, for your retarded ass... get it? Lol , pooned !
February 19, 200520 yr u 2 are so lame backing each other up....if ur opinions actually mattered...others woudl come in here n back u up....
February 19, 200520 yr There's many reasons why C is choosen over C++. One of the more obvious is that C is more portable than C++, not only across platforms but across languages (almost every language has a way to execute a C function), and the second is that C++ compilers does a lot under the hood (alot of which changes from compiler to compiler). C++ is normally used for applications and wrap the C functions. Longhorn will adopt .NET as the new Windows API, putting the old winapi into a maintenance mode. While I'm not a big fan of VM's, this is a good way to go, especially as far as security goes (if implemented right).
February 19, 200520 yr o....maybe tats y they teach only C in high school n if you wanna learn C++ you'll have to pay for your own lessons from some other places or read up on it...

February 19, 200520 yr uhhh yeah i do.... There's many reasons why C is choosen over C++. One of the more obvious is that C is more portable than C++, not only across platforms but across languages (almost every language has a way to execute a C function), and the second is that C++ compilers does a lot under the hood (alot of which changes from compiler to compiler). C++ is normally used for applications and wrap the C functions. C is chosen over C++...therefore, they rather teach you C in school then C++...(not sure about other schools)
February 19, 200520 yr uhhh yeah i do.... C is chosen over C++...therefore, they rather teach you C in school then C++...(not sure about other schools) do you even know WHY its called c++? (without using google)
February 19, 200520 yr No, its a matter of choosing the best language for a job. The language a school chooses, differs from school to school. While not so much the case now a days (Java and C# is moving into schools), C is a small language so its relatively easy to teach all of the language. Since most languages are, or have moved into OOP, and OOP style language like C++, Java, etc are probably more preferred. I like C++ because its mutliparadigm (you choose which paradigm best suits the program). I always suggest a C++ programmer to learn C. While in theory, learning C++ means you should be able to write C code, this isn't always the case. C++ programmers are taught to write code different from a C programmer would. Take for example macros, C programmers use the preprocessor extensively, while C++ programmers are taught to avoid macros since it changes the end code prior to compiling (thus making errors hard to track). Which I tend agree with C++ side, but since most system calls are written in C, despite whether it is Windows, Linux, or MySQL, and so being comfortable with the "C" way of doing stuff will help in the long run (unless you stick purely to high level wrapper libraries).
February 19, 200520 yr i kind of see the truth in that. in java theres like 5 billion different kinds of JVM and sdks and not all things made in one compiler or sdk work can be viewed with a particular jvm im gonna start looking into C++ ( i tried c, i thought it sucked ass )
