Thanks in advance guys.
I was going to say for simple programs I write C code not C++, but then I
realized that's a lie becuase I always use std::cout instead of printf. I
always use std::cin instead of gets, etc...
To me, even for straight C code, the stl gives me so much added ease of
programming over the old C counterparts that I would only use a C compiler
if I didn't have a C++ compiler.
std::vectors and std::strings have made my life so much easier, as has the
rest of the standard template library. Other than that, when I start
thinking of solutions, I now think of C++ solutions rather than C solutions,
I.E. a vector of a class with vectors, other than a 2d array. It used to be
that it took me 5x as long to do something in C++ than in C because I had to
think about the C++ language itself. Now that OOPs is also second nature, I
write C++ code faster than C code because usually the solutions are simpler.
