Hey Len!
Yeah, I totally agree. But C and C++ are similar. My point was that
programming as a sphere is not homogeneous. You can be a great database
programmer, but not know how to code graphics, for example.
Also, actual work of course helps. I would have to think how to formulate
my thought more carefully.

Nope, not true at all. With a knowledge of c (mostly K&R to boot), reading
and changing code in an audio application helped me to learn c++ (with help
from c++ references). SOmething I was unable to do using courses,
tutorials, books references, etc. (I tried). Not only that the c++ I
learned was not in any way to do with GUIs, yet with that start I was able
to then create my own projects in c++ with GUIs. Language is language,
sometimes things don't work the way that makes sense. I now choose c++ over
c just for ease of debugging.... the other thing that helps with learning
is mistakes. Make lots of them and you will learn faster... well I do
anyway.
We all learn differently.
