Jaeusm, be humble man, I think everyone reading this thread is laughing their asses of because of the way you respond to my posts. You seem so oblivious to my comments. If you don't think so, read through the thread and you'll see. You're ignoring some things I say, being a hypocrite without knowing it, and etc. You have that pride thing going on... you're trying to refute little statements I make (in a sly way) without admitting to the WHOLE POINT I'm trying to make.

My point is that there more big companies that use C++ as their foundation than big companies that use Java as their foundation. I said this numerous amount of times... don't try to refute the other things on the side, if you disagree with my main point above, then say something about that. You just keep saying there are more Java jobs on the "job boards", and I already responded to that.
I've concluded that to be the ultimate coder, at a minimum, you need to have an understanding of Java, C, C++, and .NET. And of those, I need to play with .NET, I don't want to be left behind! The other three, I'm good for. :laughing:

For learning purposes, between Java and C++, Java is the way to go strictly for the support and...well, those who have used both Java and C++, they know this: Java is a bit more friendly overall.

I for one, enjoy(ed) the friendly argument.

It would be interesting though, to see...(impossible, I know)...but, the numbers for each type of programmer, based on what they use most, as in the industry, you'll never get away with just one. It'd be funny if C won. Too bad those numbers don't exist and there's no real way to collect them.
