C++ is FINALLY here on CodeCademy!

[trevorhodges]

CodeCademy finally has gotten the course C++!
https://www.codecademy.com/learn/learn-c-plus-plus

So my question is what is the purpose of C++?

[icetomeetyou]

Hello!
Both C++ and C# are object-oriented languages, although C++ is considered a harder language to work with. … C++ is considered a more prestigious language used for applications such as games, operating systems, and very low-level programming that requires better control of hardware on the PC or server.

What?! Wow! This is great!

So pretty much the whole C series, C, C++, and C# are just console languages that have a pile of fun libraries for you to work with, and they are pretty related in a way with JavaScript.

In fact, C++ is actually a really fast language, and Python is a complete turtle compared to this language.

Python is a complete turtle compared to this language

Any scripting language is going to be slower than a compiled one since it has to go through interpretation, then made into byte code and then compiled.

I recommend Learning Java First to anyone who is interested in C++. Of course, I don’t recommend learning C++, or Java for that matter, at all until you learn more about Software engineering seeing as these languages have more to do with software engineering than building simple designs. (CS50 @ Harvard is a great idea)

Loved C++ back in college. Can’t wait to refresh my memory. Thank you codeacademy!!!

I’m just starting it actually. Still on the first lesson

I’ll get done eventually…

EDIT: I just finished the first lesson, and onto the second one!

So guys, I viewed the stream that @icetomeetyou found on the CC news:

@icetomeetyou

I looked and found this:

More Content is Coming!

• Thursday, December 6th: Getting Started with C++ (Live Stream)

The stream was great! I enjoyed how the person was talking, and not just their tone.

I made some code for the challenge that the person was referring to, and I made a topic about it:

Challenge accepted!

So, as of now, December 6th, I watched Codecademy’s stream on the C++ course, and I made an entry for it. Here’s the code: #include <iostream> int main() { std::cout << "MMMMMMMMM AA RRRR K K \n"; std::cout << "M M M A A R R K K \n"; std::cout << "M M M A A RRRR KK \n"; std::cout << "M M M AAAAAAAA RR KK \n"; std::cout << "M M M A A R R K K \n"; std::cout << "M M M A A …

Is it still active? If so, I want to do it.

[cpluspluscoder]

Hello! I am here for C++ because someone told me they have C++ here. So here I am to learn it!

[trevorhodges]

Nice! Welcome to CodeCademy! Currently this is new so stuff is still getting added for this course!

[trevorhodges]

I tired to see, but I couldn’t find it. I tried a few times throughout today, and still didn’t see it. I still want to go to one, so I guess I’ll try sometime again soon!

[ajaxjumper78997]

FINALLY, I WON’T BE FAILING ON C++ TEST NO MORE.
Yaaaaaa

[auren]

…totally true. And hopefully with faster processors we ain’t gonna notice at all. Python is love and when I use python for, in-my-case, analysing data, then I dont care about a tiny time delay

[cpluspluscoder]

That’s nice! Not failing test is a amazing thing to have.
