If you think C is not overly complicated, just what is a protected abstract virtual base pure virtual private destructor and when was the last time you needed one -? Tom CargillWhen your hammer is C , everything begins to look like a thumb - Steve HalflichC is an atrocity, the bletcherous scab of the computing world, responsible for ... more mysterious failures than any other computer language in the history of the planet earth - Eric Lee GreenIf C has taught me one thing, it's this: just because the system is consistent does not mean it's not the work of Satan - Andrew PlotkinThere are only two things wrong with C : the initial concept and the implementation - Bertrand meyerI saw 'cout' being shifted "Hello world" times to the left and stopped right there - Steve Gonedessurely there's something to defend: there are only two kinds of programming languages: those people always bitch about and those nobody uses - Bjarne Stroustrup

---- Facing the reality ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------

int main () {if (youWantToWorkInAParticularLanguage ()) {if (youCantFindReasonableEmploymentUsingYourCurrentSkillset ()) learnAnotherLanguage (); else if (youCanStartYourOwnBusiness ()) goForIt (); else starve ();} else {writeInferiorCode ();}} --- - Optimistic up ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ -----------------
