A Few Queries About Understanding C++

[iGuest 3]

i have a problem with the starting file on c++ like sometimes it is stream.to or something like starting at the beginning.. and i cannot really understand what file is correct to the type of program you are creating.. i mean i know visual basic and obviously it is a diffferent interface....also if there any possibility to adapt any language to another language like for example... php into flash... or stuff like that i know that flash can be added into many language because flash is a really easy interface.well it is hard time learning programming on your own.. a little bit more challenging but always fun... poor guys that work all day programming... i see it depressing and sad.

first : if u know good C++ u r - not poor ..money wise..trust me. The ricchest dude in the world is essentaiily a C programmer (or some thing close ..as most of Windows is made in C if not C++)- not poor ...other wise : because to be a good programmer u need to love programming. and have a certain aptitute. Like any one cannot be a doctor ..just any one cannot be a programmer.Flash and Visual Basic are basically design tools in my opnion. Thye have a bit of scripting invloved ..and so is PHP(just plain scripting and in my opnion very good language ..u can even program stuff which can run on ur local machine with PHP command line interfaces and WxWidgets)On the other hand C/C++ is a compiled langauge..what does this mean. In PHP for example the computer only looks at the code while running it. Where in C it looks at the code b4 running it and makes a program which can be run. This thing is done through a C/C++ compiler as u already may know. Now tell us which compiler or IDE (Integrated Devlopment Environment) you are using. There are many C/C++ compiler out there, tell us which one u r using . I would recomend MinGW, now this compiler comes bundeled with set of nice tools or IDE calls DevC++ , download it and give it a try. Create new project , for console app in that Mind you C is a differnt than C++ ..C++ is an extension of C..but their treatment of programming is different..but for now let us say C/C++ is same stuff..normally a compiler can do both.If you need further assistance , Private Messege Me , I shall be gald to help youIt takes patience to learn a programming language like C/C++ , but you will have this knowldge for the rest of your life...Also on a technical not. JAVA is good competitor to C++ , its more devloper friendly and will help you in almost any platform. Java run in Mobiles (Java enabled) web server (JSP ..just like PHP) and on ur computer (example include Azeureus Bittorent client and web pages with Java Applets) ..its a one in all thing and its just awsome. It would be a good time to take a look at JAVA. Java is made by a company called Sun ..Java is also the rival of .NET framework..to which i have some reservations..stay away from .NET cause its not goodOne more thing..bets tool ever invented for programming IMO is Google ..it has almost any problem solved. So do alot of searches on Google. I am not trying to snub u in not asking questions..but the fastest way and easiest way to get a solution is to find it ur self.

I dont agree a person is a programmer if he does not know C/C++and i dont feel java is competetor for C++.. C++ it is good on it is own way java is good on it onw way.in JAVA u r restricted what it is offereing but in C++ still u can write ur own(rather mix) assembly codeIf u need Object orienetd architecute and doing system programiing go for C++JAVA also do some system programming but not up to the mark.. for example it offer few function for socket programmig so u can do chat application.. but if i do that is very new or having customized architecuture u cant depend on java but ion c++ u can write ur machine code and join with that....Dont say java also provides JNI (JAVA Native Interface) that is hell .. u have to make seperate dll files and that have it is own data type jint ,jchar....many compatible things.. i am not sure how to do in linux platforms.. dll for windows...how do they make so files in linux.......so C++/java are separate... JAVA/.NET/Mono are in the same level... are competetors........
