My aproach to C++ is very simple: I use it as
'C with classes'. No streams, no
STL, no other nonsense. Gives me the best of both worlds - clean objects and
low level.
Good answer. I've often wondered why anyone would use vectors. I always use C arrays in C++. Vectors are slower than
molasses in January
(or June for those in the southern half ;-)
FWIW, accessing elements in a vector with [] shouldn't be any slower
than doing the same on a C array.
Not that C++ doesn't still suck..
