I'm learning C++

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.

Just thought I would share

The preferred rewrite:

#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
