"And there are certainly more powerful languages than others. Any one who has spent any amount of time programming will tell you OOP is more powerful than procedural programming, and as such C++ is more powerful than C (or pretty much any procedural language)"

Statements like this are why many despair the state of of modern computer science education.

"Please understand what you are talking about before trying to discredit a large swath of people. Thanks."

Please take pity on us mere non-uber leet c# mortals.

 

 You are saying procedural languages are as powerful as OO languages?  They why use OOP at all?  Why were C++/Java/C#/VB even made?  You know this is not the case.  OOP is more powerful than procedural, therefore by neccesity, a OO language is more powerful than a procedural one.

And I have nothing against C# specifically.  I use it 100% of the time at work.  But you won't catch a game developer ever using it, except for tools and utilities.



I am a Gauntlet Adventurer.

I strive to improve my living conditions by hoarding gold, food, and sometimes keys and potions. I love adventure, fighting, and particularly winning - especially when there's a prize at stake. I occasionally get lost inside buildings and can't find the exit. I need food badly. What Video Game Character Are You?
