>You outed yourself as knowing very little about both of them. C++(as it was originally intended) builds useful abstractions on top of C. You can write C code and compile it with pretty much any C++ compiler.
I never said anything on the contrary to this. I said that C++ is the midwit verison of C because it is. Those "useful abstractions" you talk about are crutches that midwits require to write their code easier.
>Depends heavily on what the application is in both cases.
Not really, the average software engineer does not know the intricacies of the system he's using. He just writes his little program in Java or Python and calls it a day.
>Yeah that's called an abstraction. We use them to save time and labor. It's much more reasonable to write printf("hello world) than bringing specific pins to a HIGH state on a monitor to achieve the same thing.
Yeah, its a crutch used by shitty programmers who don't actually know how their computers work and have no desire to learn the machine.
>the UNIX certified family of operating systems are not embedded operating systems.
Uh huh, but UNIX was written in Assembly and C. The average script kiddie is not writing UNIX, they're making shitty little hacks for Windows.

Glad we agree on this.
It was funny when you tried to "Gatcha" me on the C++ thing. Run along little CS Major, go use your abstraction nonsense and leave the real coding to Engineers.
