@Sid - "Ouch" you do recall I am 100% home taught. I learned by doing and studying you guys work. The jump to C++ is more then just a langue switch for me. It is like 20 University classes I've never taken.
I haver never seen a university from the inside in my whole life. And never heard of anyone who could program on more than a theoretical level after having just attended one.
So, you have to learn C++? What's the big deal? That it looks scary and that the internet says it's such a complex and terrifying language? The worst part about C++ are templates, and you don't even need to touch them if you don't feel like it. The rest is just a matter of learning a couple of more concepts.
Come on man, everything looks scarier from afar. That is, except of my mom, who looks kinda cute from far away and gets terrifying once you get too close to run away.
