Also, a lot of vendors' APIs, libraries, what have you are written for C or C++. In my current job, I've had to use different APIs for 2 very different applications: the Dialogic API for Dialogic telephone cards, and the ACCPAC API for the ACCPAC Advantage Series accounting program. Both interfaces are written in the C language (but could be used in C++).

Has anybody heard about the Blitz Basic programming lang.?

Nope. I wouldn't even Google it, with the word, "Basic", in the title. Might be a mistake, but there ya go.

as to whitespace vs. semicolons...i like to keep my code very neat, so whitespace is usually not an issue, but when moving the source file around different text editors, THEY WILL FUCK WITH YOUR WHITESPACE...but i never had notepad or anything add random semicolons.

bottom line...it sucks and it's stupid. period.

as to the dabate over C and C++, i choose the "middle gound"...learn C+.

:p
