Re: I had an epiphany: C++ doesn't actually suck

im learning both C and C++ at the moment.  Im using C for numerical stuff
and C++ for everything else.  However when I program in C++ I tend to do
it in C style until I need to use C++ features.  I like C because it is fast
but on projects I just think C++ is easier (OOP) to work with. 

Hence I dont think C++ "sucks".

Re: I had an epiphany: C++ doesn't actually suck

I never understood people's need to flame a particular language...
C and C++ are not beginner languages and were never meant to be.

I have to agree with Allan, people are indeed stupid... and they'll go to great lenghts to blame everything else for their mistakes. I stopped counting the number of times i've heard people say, "C++ sucks" because they had made a pointer mistake. If you make this kind of mistake in C/C++, you'll make them in any language. It doesn't have to be pointers. You failed to maintain your program's logic in a coherent state and that will bite you in the ass in ANY language.

I think we've established that C++ doesn't suck. Therefore:

del [] thread;

Forgot the semicolon.

The thread starter called stop.
