c, c++ is used alot in industry (not so much on the web) you certainly won't find many people using c/c++ on tf/yaxay, it's not a web language as such. The more popular languages to pick up and learn are php/asp/perl.

I have used c++ before at University and it wasn't pretty! Very hard to use, horrible code structures and very confuesing.

Never have used C or C++, and probably never will.

Probably a wise decision.

C is cool; plays a big part in huge programs which want extreme control over exact resources.

Isn't used in Web Programming though. Short of writing an extension of the Common Language Runtime and having it installed on their Server to use C in ASP.NET.

Ive been playing around with c++ more then c. I find c++ so much easier to grasp and pick up compared to C. C++ in my eyes has a simplier approach to do the basic things such as echoing data, etc.
