Yep, C++ has grown. But what I like about it is that you can use it as C. I think you will always be able to do that.

You can use a mink coat as a blanket, too; not the best ROI.

It would probably help you NOT to learn 10(more or less?) year old code as it is deprecated most likely, as mentioned by others. Get a nice tutorial online and scrap all those old books/code that your mom had back in the day, or just put them back in the closet.

albeit simple and mundane.
