Re: c++ vs. java

With C++, you will spend most of your time learning the intricacies of the language and the standard libraries.

With Java, you will be able to focus on OOP concepts and program design.

It is also worth mentioning that there are numerous facets of C++ that are simply not present in Java. For example, all variables (with the exception of basic types) are references in Java; in C++, a variable can be a pointer, reference, or an object itself.
