Amen (my 0.02). Although I've done Java and C# programming, I've never done
any C++ work, and I'm quite fluent in C.
OO languages merely make it easier for the programmer to use OO concepts, but
they can be used with *any* language (not "simulated" either). OOP didn't
appear concurrently with OO languages, rather OO languages were invented to
make OOP easier (although less efficient). Remember, the first C++
"compilers" translated C++ code into C source code that was then processed by
your trusty C compiler (real-life demonstration of the theorem that all
Universal Turing Machines are equivalent ;-). BTW, Rhys, thanks for the
tip-off about brainf*ck--I'm still giggling.
