IMO, C++ is more simple and easier to use than Java

[Glampkoo]

Hey guys, I just registered and this is my first post.

I'm currently learning C++ and I found it to be very easy and comfortable than any other languages that I've worked with sofá.

I wrote my first little C++ program that converts various temperatures like Celsius Fahrenheit and Kelvin and works like a charm (but has a little bug if you write letters instead of numbers)

C++ condenses a lot of code that Java would use. It's seems to me that a lot of stuff is logical instead of Java, there are a ton of stuff that don't make sense to me.

Stuff stuff = new Stuff(stuff); - wtf?

Look at the main function of Java compared to C++.

public static void main(String [] args) {} - Java

int main(){} - C++

A lot more simple.

So what do you think?

The behavior of your program is undefined because you're making calls to main() from within main().

This seems more lounge worthy.

Anyways, I don't think that your distaste for Java has much to do with Java being better than C++ (Subjective). I think it has to do with you not knowing much about C++ (?)

Example :

int main() is a definition for one of the following supported "expanded" main functions.

int main(void)

int main(int argc, char* argv[]) or int main(int argc, char** argv)

The C++ way of dynamically allocating objects on the heap, is by using the new or new[] operator(s).

Foo* foo = new Foo(/*args*/);
