I'm learning C++

I've always heard people say that C++ and PHP are a very similar language. So, today I took my first lesson in C++.

Code:

#include <iostream.h>



int main ()

{

        cout << "Hello World!";

        return 0;

}

That does what this does in php

PHP Code:


		
			
<?php

echo "Hello World!";

?>

:) I'm a genius!

Anyone else here program? I'm downloading Microsoft Visual C++ from Microsoft.com and with a 4.0mbps connection, its taking for ever. It's only a 32mb file, but Bill Gates has a crappy server. :p

Just thought I would share :p

I used to program in Turbo Pascal in the old BBS days. ;)

I want to be able to create my own text editor, so I thought C++ would be the way to go. I'm now determine to create such a software, so I'm doing a lot of reading, and waiting for some advice from a friend that I just emailed.

I did Visual Basic in college and some turbo pascal in school. In all honesty I can't remember a single line of code... I was never that great at it anyway... I was always modifying my BB in lessons heh. :D C++ is the one I'd like to know though, have always fancied dabbling in game mods and it's the way to go. Isn't there a new language available now though? C#?

I know a LITTLE c++ but one of my moderators on my site actually built my site a program just for my site..almost fully integrated..called KeySafe?, its great..you can store all your serial keys, ect..in there.

I used to do some Macintosh Programming, and was one of the many programmers that helped develop Hotline, but that didn't use C it used another language that the developer wrote. I have played a bit with C++ but not too much lately. Once you get the basic commands down it is pretty intuitive as I remember. Of course nothing beats BASIC:

100 PRINT "HELLO WORLD!"
110 END

:D

i used to do c++ quite a bit. it is very easy. c# is a crap language because it cant be compiled on all os'. through college i did programming on a linux system because i wasnt going to pay the outrageous prices for the software. there are also /t/n chars in c++.

you can also run a void main function as well so there is no return.
void main (){cout << "Hello World!";}

and on newer compilers there is a difference between the .h files and

Code:

using namespace std;

there is even more that i forget right now but it will come back to me sometime. hope this didnt throw too much info at you so far

^ yeah but you can make top dollar if you know c#, theres a lot of companies that are hiring C# programmers for the .net platform even more than that are hiring php programmers. Plus c# is very similar to php and flash actionscript so if you have those backgrounds you can pick it up fast.

The preferred rewrite:

Code:

#include <iostream>



using namespace std;



int main(int argc, char** argv)

{

    cout << "Hello, world!" << endl;

    return 0;

}

C++ blows once you know languages like Java and C#.

Java is great - I'm so glad my college required me to take a full year of it. Apart from that though I'm just getting started with PHP and MySQL (Which is coming along pretty quickly) - Haven't messed with C, C++ or C# though (I think I get to work with C# next spring but I'm not sure.)

well I finished C#, it is like Java all the ways but since it is MS's it offers all Windows features
