I can see some of the issues with C++ but i still would like to hear other developer's opinion on the topic. As i'm not a hugely technical person as i'm just starting out, some of the topics in the FAQ articles don't mean much to me
From those articles it seems C is still favoured over C++. but perhaps people are combining the two?
Well, I would say that, at the very least, you should use "C++ as a better C". For instance, declaration statements, through which you limit the scope of variables, helps greatly in reducing the likelihood of bugs in your code.
I think the real question is whether you choose procedural or object-oriented programming. I use a mixture of both. For my main program logic I stick to procedural programming, but I also wrote several utility classes for "fundamental" data structures such as strings and linked lists. Constructors/destructors provide natural places for memory (de)allocation.
