That's an interesting statement.

I started out as a C programmer and moved to C++ because I found it far
easier to "think" in terms of C++. However, I view C and C++ as two very
different languages (although they can also be very similar), and I
think C++ is one of the easiest to learn languages. It is certainly
easier than some of the arcane BASIC implementations I have found over
the years :-)

Well, bye for now,
