I saw this definition and I almost gave myself a sore throat from laughing.

5. C++ 125 up, 16 down

A programming language for Real Men. Most languages try to provide a simplified way to solve specific problems well. C++ makes no such concession and tries to be mediocre at everything. It lets you program at a very high level, and a very low level in the same program. It lets you write procedural code, object oriented code, generic code and mix them all up. It makes you decide everything and provides no help if you get it wrong.

It is by far the biggest, most complicated, ugly, down-right dangerous language you can use. But it does run fast. It takes at least twice as long to program in C++ as any other major language (except C).

The men who program in C++ are Real Men. The women who program in C++ are Real Men too. You can spot a C++ programmer from their testosterone fueled swagger, and the unbelievable amount of contempt they inject into the phrase Java "programmer". They'll probably do the air quotes and all.

Dev: 'Hey, Reg, you know C++ right? What does:
".\src\Cont.cpp(52) : error C2679: binary '=' : no operator found which takes a right-hand operand of type 'int' (or there is no acceptable conversion)

Reg: 'You missed a semicolon at the end of the line.'

Excellent.

I like to program in C++ but I don't have a testosterone fueled swagger. Is there something wrong with me? Women being Real Men is a pics or didn't happen story that no one wants to see.

I noticed the MapleStory server logo on your signature. What server do you play on?

Damn typos >.> IT'S 6:20 IN THE MORNING <.<

I haven't been on Kradia in ages. I haven't played any of them in a long time.

Hahaha I almost moved to Kradia. That game never fails to crack me up. Everyone on my server (Mardia) is demented. ><

[WolfCoder]

Everyone in that game is demented.

EXACTLY. That huge-ass error for such a simple mistake. Can it be more complicated?

I agree that C++ is a highly useful language, however cumbersome and tedious every single part of it may be.

That error could also be an overloading issue, not necessarily a missing semicolon. Also, that's a stupid reason to not like a language.

Never said I didn't like it for that reason. But you'd think the error messages would be easier to read.

Hopefully it discourages the terrible programmers. That way we can work with only the good ones

[Locke]

Agreed.

I like how Visual Studio wants to debug and disassemble every single program that ever crashes on your computer. It's like it magically thinks you'll actually be able to do something with the random assembly code from some program you didn't write.

Cool! I was just thinking about that, because GTA IV crashed again.WTF would I do with the assembly?
