Yeah.. I spent to much time surfing the net... >I spent several semesters with object oriented **anything** ;-))) Don't get me wrong: the theory behind OOP, itself, is exellent. Maybe I am a terrible OOP programmer since every time I write a class (or object in Object Pascal), I tend to think it's more efficient and cleaner to rewrite the class instead of using inheritence... >You probably don't think (as I do) that hi-level programming is generally >better than low-level programming, >which gives you faster code. But nowadays computers are fast enough to run >on C++. You're right. I am a low-level programmer. I do admit that C++ DOES have its uses... For a start, it's a lot easier writing Windows apps in C++ than it is in C. And I guess Smalltalk and Eiffle have there uses, somewhere, too... I belong to the train of beleif that, if you write your code to work at a reasonable speed on a 5 year old computer, imagine how fast it would be on an up-to-date beastie! :) >C++ is not for Sam. >At least since C++ compilers are MUCH MUCH slower than their C brothers. You're telling me! :) C++ seems to take forever to compile anything! Justin.
