Its is the King of Kings, that's why top video game companies use it.

Prove me wrong?

C++ is good at certain things, such as number crunching and polymorphism.
It's absolutely terrible at others, such as GUI development or socket programming.

High budget video game titles are produced using C++ because it can hammer out excellent frame rates, and is fairly trivial to develop across multiple platforms (depending on the platforms, of course).
It being used so ubiquitously in the video game industry doesn't make it better than other languages; it is just, more often than not, better suited for developing high budget/profile games.

To add on to things that C++ is horrible at: developing websites. Python (with Django/Flask/Pyramid) and Ruby (with Ruby on Rails) are far better choices for web development than C++ is, though you can still develop websites entirely in C++. That doesn't make Python or Ruby better languages.

I think its used in the video game industry because there is so much going on at one time, its very fast and efficient.

First, how much do you know about C++?

Finally, there is more than 1 type of programming language(s). And plus, each type of languages is for different purposes.

Argument invalid. I'm not defending OP here since its maker is a successful troll (see General forum).

But know the different between web programming language (are you talking about HTML?) and object-oriented programming language (C++).

They are like fucking orange and apple.

You can code anything in C++, even websites, websites are purposely coded in half ass languages to make them slow to keep you hooked on the websites and keep you coming back.

I just want to kill myself. There are differences between mandatory/framework language and embedded language, professor Apocalypseven.

In fact you can embed any language, including x86 ASM. Python is multi purposes language already so C++ is basically in the trash can when come to speed and stabilizability. Other languages are C#, OOC, Perl and true king of the king: Java.

Seriously, go home and actually learn C++ properly.

I wouldn't say so, the third point Diki made is what I was basically getting at. I knew this post was a cheap attempt at trolling, but it doesn't work here because we actually have decent conversations.

I just know compared to alternatives C++ would be less productive to build sites with from scratch. Never said it was impossible. I just said try it :)

YOu guys are all brainwashed, python is a piece of shit, no one even learns C++ because its too difficult for them or their too lazy.

Sorry for mentoining this, I'm not a grammar nazy (I've terrible grammar too) but "their" != "they're". Anyway, why do you overpower C++? And why do you argue? Lol god, it's a programming language.. and then what? I won't learn it, but it's not because I'm too lazy or too difficult, it's just: "I won't use it, then why have it?". Many people prefer to other languages to develop different type of applications in different platforms. Such as PHP5 as others said.. You shouldn't compare these languages!

No. I'll state something that you would know if you knew C++: no developer in their right mind uses C++ for applications that don't require extreme performance. Especially web developers. It has nothing to do with laziness but a lot with difficulty and downtime. C++ requires much more time spent developing a complex feature than a language like Python. That is one reason Python was invented - it fits the niche of rapid development.

Also, if you knew even half of what you're talking about, you'd know that no programming language is the best. Oh, and I learned C++ on my own. So that would be another assumption you've made of C++. Seriously, how many people do you think work in the video game industry?

Well I will end with this, no one even knows what programming is, if your aware of it or not someone taught us these languages, we were handpicked.

You are the worst troll I have ever seen. Eh? Learn a programming without knowing its purposes. Then why did you learn it for?

As everette00 stated it, there is no best language. That's why people have to learn new language(s) every time something is being improved.

I think there is though, look at all the software and the different languages to use them, the best software where it be video games/airport/banks is C++.

That's the problem - you think. You don't have any factual evidence that C++ is the best. Just because something is used widely for one area of software development does not make it the best. That's the same as saying that incandescent light bulbs are the best. They aren't. They're expensive in the long-term and they waste electricity. But hell, for more than a century, we've been using them as the only major source of artificial lighting in homes.

Also, how do you know airports and banks use C++ for their software? Do you write code for them?

Good god, almost every wannabe game designer I met said C++ is good but non can point out why it is good. What a bunch of brainwashed lunatics.

Want an answer? You were right on speed. C++ is a procedural language. Wannabes like you might heard of that term 'procedural' in game programming; especially the graphic programming field. You may want to read more. Set it to the simpler explanation is you want to use a certain few set of instructions to perform larger sets of instruction.

I think there is though, look at all the software and the different languages to use them, the best software where it be video games/airport/banks is C++.

What you heard isn't like what you experienced with. Anyone on this forum can easily beat your argument with a few demonstrations. SImply just go to Google or similar search engines and please Research more. And no, I wouldn't recommend C++ for banking and aviation.

Hell, am I feeding the trolls here?

I don't mean to shift the focus to you, but C++ is not a procedural programming language. C is, though.

That is what I'm trying to say, you cannot learn these complex languages, you have to be taught by an insider, the coders are picking us off because of our high IQ and telling us to read these code books, play games, watch the matrix, blah blah blah.

You can just tell, or are they using python? LOL, there whole system would crash in 2 hours if they used that weak language. I don't write code for them, that's not what I want to do, I do strictly video game code.

What do you think someone is when they program? Where do you think the word "coder" comes from? There isn't a great divide by the divine beings that write software and the evil coders whom want to disrupt software development. There isn't even a difference. You write software, you're a coder. You code, you write software. Where did you come up with this crap?
