Hi Everyone
So my Cobol studies are coming along well, if I am not working to feed
by kids or looking after them, I am studying Cobol. I bought 7 more
books.
I know C but I don't think I am amazing at it by any means.
I would really like to become an open Cobol developer in a year or so
but I will need to study C and Cobol in order to be of any use.
C++ scares me. People beat up C but not like C++. It really seems like a
huge language with the weak C core.
I can program in C++ but I am concerned about writing excellent quality
code in C++
I am thinking about reading this book:
http://www.planetpdf.com/codecuts/pdfs/ooc.pdf
and studying OO in vanilla C.
It is my understanding that OO has been available in ANSI C for a long
time. It just sounds like it is just so butt ugly as to be hard to use.
If we implement OO in pure C behind the scenes, the ugliness would not
matter.
Is it fair to say we don't really have a primary developer right now? Is
it fair to say that it is unlikely that we will have a primary developer
that is capable of writing mission critical C++?
