02:53:09 <CakeProphet> omote attempts to learn C++
02:53:11 <CakeProphet> er...
02:53:16 * CakeProphet attempts to learn C++
02:53:23 <xor> lol c++
02:53:27 <CakeProphet> but... C++ is really... weird... and doesn't make a lot of... sense.
02:53:30 <CakeProphet> at all.
02:53:45 <xor> Just code in bf
02:53:50 * CakeProphet wants to feel all warm and comfy in his Python interpreter.
02:53:58 <xor> I like python
02:54:12 <CakeProphet> C++ scares me with its weirdness and seeming over-elaborate and very specific mumbo-jumbo.
02:57:20 <Asztal> there's a lot of rules that you will, in practice, almost never need to know (such as... did you know the lifetime of an typeinfo object returned by the typeid operator? etc)
02:57:21 <CakeProphet> ...what's the purpose of specifying the type of the variable? The only reason I could see if gaining a smidgeon of efficiency... since all variables are limited to a maxinum number of bytes.
02:58:04 <Asztal> compile-time checking rather than run-time?
02:58:22 <xor> CakeProphet: um
02:58:37 <Asztal> and with template meta-programming you can do some quite cool compile-time checks
02:58:44 <xor> it's a lot of effeincy
02:59:23 <CakeProphet> pah... efficiency is for chumps... :D
02:59:36 <CakeProphet> and... people working with large, memory consuming programs...
02:59:46 <Asztal> no, they can get stuffed
02:59:56 <Asztal> ;)
03:01:12 <xor> Most languages are statically typed
03:02:59 <CakeProphet> static typing methinks can make things more difficult as well..
03:03:05 <CakeProphet> not to mention... tedious. :P

03:04:54 <wooby> hio
03:06:28 <CakeProphet> Hey.
03:07:17 <CakeProphet> also... C++ uses strangely inconsistent syntax.
03:07:38 <CakeProphet> Each type declaration seems to use its own branch of syntax...
03:08:13 <CakeProphet> Everything seems to be case-by-case and specific to various sitatuins... rather than a general, simple syntax.
03:16:15 <Asztal> well, it did evolve from C and "C with classes"
03:16:32 <Asztal> its syntax makes sense to me, though.
03:17:38 * CakeProphet probably just isn't use to it.
03:17:48 <CakeProphet> Nothing seems consistent in it... at the moment.
03:18:24 <Asztal> anything in particular?
03:18:39 <Asztal> I guess function pointers are a bit... messy
03:19:14 <CakeProphet> The whole thing seems messy to me.
03:19:50 <Asztal> maybe I'm just used to it.
03:20:12 <CakeProphet> Each new thing I encounter uses some alternate and somewhat different syntax...
03:22:43 <Asztal> it's probably a good thing you're not using the C standard library
03:22:55 <Asztal> unless you are, in which case, un-lucky!
03:27:12 <CakeProphet> haha... how weird... strings are accesses via something in the standard library.
03:28:01 <Asztal> I don't find it weird :)
03:29:05 <wooby> i've never done anything w/ c++ really
03:29:18 <wooby> although i looked into it when java 1.5 had generics
03:29:24 <wooby> i guess the generics in c++ are pretty serious
03:29:37 <Asztal> they're turing complete
03:29:52 <Asztal> you can do stupid stuff with them :|

17:11:17 <xor_> all the programming classes at the local community college are in Java, VB or C##
17:11:25 <xor_> :(
17:12:53 <RodgerTheGreat> Java isn't a bad language.
17:13:22 <xor_> Yeah it is
17:13:39 <RodgerTheGreat> How so? It's an excellent way to learn OOP.
17:13:54 <xor_> There are much better ways
17:14:00 <xor_> Python, for example
17:14:24 <RodgerTheGreat> Python is an imperative language.
17:14:59 -!- jix has quit ("Bitte waehlen Sie eine Beerdigungnachricht").
17:15:13 <xor_> yes...
17:15:31 <xor_> so is java
17:16:18 <RodgerTheGreat> that's incorrect. Java is a functional language, not an imperative language.
17:17:20 <xor_> java certainly isn't functional
17:18:18 <lindi-> java certainly isn't functional indeed
17:18:40 <lindi-> python has more functional properties like anonymous functions
17:26:07 <GregorR-L> Um ...
17:26:15 <GregorR-L> Java is functional in the least ...
17:26:40 <GregorR-L> It's imperative, subclass procedural, subclass object oriented, subclass nazi-type object orientation.
17:26:56 <GregorR-L> Erm
17:27:02 <GregorR-L> Java is NOT functional in the least ^^
