Hey, I haven't really been following this thread either. I have a day job, and was just channeling my inner Boyd and venting in my spare time because I entirely agree with Linus and jwz about C++. But thanks for the compliment about my summarising prowess. Bakul was right - that was rude. But he was also wrong, in that game programmers pretty much all write in C, a most excellent language, described in one of the finest books ever written about programming, rather than C++. But I've bought every single copy of "The C++ Programming Language" since it came out, have waded through the pompous and ponderous prose, grappled with the lack of a decent index, and seriously, can you read chapter 22 of the "Special Edition" with a straight face?
