Subject: Re: I'm Confused. C, C++, C#. Which to Use?

Go up one level in this thread


Write a program that says "hello world". Write a very simple Loebner-Prize type
thingy. Write a program that plays connect 4 (or connect 5? or 6?). Write one
that wins RK vs. R ending.

Then come back worrying about languages.

Now write a chess program.

Then come back worrying about compilers.

You dont sound like a child - you sound like a beginner who would like to know
more - like me.

Kind regards,
Georg :)
