C Sharp- misnomer?
-
From a quote: "C# is a simple, modern, object oriented, and type-safe programming language derived from C and C++. C# (pronounced "C sharp") is firmly planted in the C and C++ family tree of languages, and will immediately be familiar to C and C++ programmers. C# aims to combine the high productivity of Visual Basic and the raw power of C++." If C# is a simpler version of C and C++, shouldn't it be called C Dull? Maybe the VB portion redeems it from the doldrums...? Just wondering. Take Care God Bless...

'Maybe' being the imperative word. Josh

After reading more.. C# really is not connected to C++ in any way. So many things in programming are either built onto C++ or the C++ name... using the popularity of C++ to its advantage (and confusing C++ programmers at the same time).
