    Hi everyone, I have a question, if you see forums on the codeproject they are active forums like Visual C++ / MFC,C#,... and at all forums Visual C++ / MFC is a busy forum (of course except the Lounge)but my question is does Visual c++ is a live language or not,maybe you want to know why I ask this question I want to know does start to learn C++ is correct (because c++ isnt new istead C# or other languages) or I must to start with C# or other language? If you want to decide whats your choice? Thanks

        You can start directly with C# no Problem. There are no depending things you must know to understand the "upper" language.

                  Be a man and start with C++. After that, everything will seem easy sailing. Don't let the naysayers and pink-tutu-wearing-my-pretty-pony-lunch-box-carrying-little-girls convince you otherwise.

                                I'd start with 'use cases', sample programs that deal with generic libraries, data structures and both compile and runtime metadata. You will jump over the OODA trap in no time and master it better than any first-language-C#/Java programmer. Proof: they are rubbish at assembly, pointers to pointers (despite having a keyword for it) and love their class frameworks :-)

                                        Well, it depends what you want to do. C# is easier to learn, and just as good for a lot of things, but C++ is more powerful, people can't read your code, etc. The main thing I'd say is, learn more than one language. Who says you can't learn both ?

                                          I've started from BASIC for DOS many years ago. After that I've spend a lot of time with C and C++ developing Linux applications. This is hard job, but interesting. And after this work experience I had moved to .NET and C#. It was easy very much. I think you should start from C++ and also learn OOP/OOD. After this you will not have any problems with another languages.
