And Wrong. Actually it depends on what he wants to do. If he wants to do GUI programming, the way to go would be C++. If he wants to delve into kernel development he should stick to C. C++ doesn' t enforce anything. I have seen code in C++ which would turn my grandmother in her grave. Some concepts in C++ may be hard to understand when you start learning, but then again newbies also have problems with pointers in C, so each language has some things which are harder to understand. If he is going for a cereer then C++ is also a must. Most projects (commercial) now are written in C++. -- Gerhard Gruber Maintainer of SoftICE for Linux - http://sourceforge.net/projects/pice Fast application launcher - http://sourceforge.net/projects/launchmenu -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
