linked lists in java are so much easier than in C++

its statments like this that make me hate the universities that only teach java. or teach java before c/c++

yea, but what if they taught C#?

just as bad. i dont think any managed code should be taught as your first real language.

C# is pretty much just like microsoft's stealing java and branding it their own there are some change but they stole 95% of the stuff from java

anyway learn C++ is easy to learn its writing memory leak free software thats the problem

tell me C# would still have been developed had java not

what ameesh said, and i was just trying to see if he would bite for the ms product

that's quite different from stealing. c# is *not* simply rebranded java.

it may not be exactly stealing but

you can not deny there is a striking resemblance between the 2

and how .NET is to the JVM

C# is basically java throw in some C++ and its own virtual machine and make a few improvements

of course there is, they both were heavily derived from C++.

that's like saying an acura is basically a lexus, or vice versa.

Of course it's gonna be harder to understand linked lists when you have no previous knowledge of them. I don't think it's an issue of them being that much harder in Java, you're just smarter from having already done it in C++

though Java is derived from C++ is was truly the first true OOP language

the differences between C# and Java are very little while much has changed from C++ ---> Java / C#

before Java there was no such thing as a Virtual Machine

your comparison between acura and lexus does not correlate unless it would be like Acura is a copy of Lexus the first Luxury Sedan (which it was not)

are we forgetting smalltalk? and are we forgetting the primitive int in java?

the differences between C# and Java are very little while much has changed from C++ ---> Java / C#

not surprising, since C# is not meant to be derived from java. they learned from java, they didn't build off of it. if you built your own computer, after reading up on other people's experiences in hardware, are you "stealing" their computer design, or are you just being smart and taking care not to make the same mistakes as your peers?

your comparison between acura and lexus does not correlate unless it would be like Acura is a copy of Lexus the first Luxury Sedan (which it was not)

that's the point.

While Sun may have invented the term "Virtual Machine" I don't think they were the first to devise a plan to translate machine code from one machine to another by way of software.
I had a PET emulator on my C64 in 1986, which is really nothing more than a PET virtual machine that takes the PET code and converts it to c64 code.

Would you explain the fundamental difference between an interpreter and a virtual machine, please?

You're really off base here. If you're a Computer Science student, I'm never sending my children to your school.

And by analogy, sports teams won three championships in a row before Pat Riley coined the term "Threepeat."
(There were "virtual machines" or interepreters or emulators before the term was coined.)

I see your point

I give up
