I will put this in code

int vgcharts = 0;

int NPD = 1;

if(vgcharts = NPD) {

cout "Ownage Approved"; 

return true;

}

else {

cout  "Thread Fails";

return true;

}

Those aren't the official numbers.  We'll have to wait a bit longer to see how things turned out.

Pokemon comes out this week....But one of the reasons why the DS "may" have sold that much is there was a sorage in some areas and they are now getting back on track...Some areas have been having the same problems with the DS and the Wii

they have a fair bit in common. theres an old sayiong that goes something like "if u know c++ then u know 80% of java, C# and many other object orientated languages". the logic is all very similar and alot of constructs behave in the same way (eg while loops ad for loops). syntax is different though for other things like import statements and the main method and that kind of jazz. also certain languages have little features that others dont. eg java has a garbage collector where as c++ doesent (as far as i know) so in c++ u have to make sure u free up memory, otherwise u have a memory leak which is narly. in java u can only extend from on class but can interface more classes (which is arguably the same thing). however a class can only have 1 super class in java. a C++ class can have multiple super classes.

but yeah, overall pretty similar in my experience.

 It's the other way around :) One of the design goals of Java was to be similar to the C family's syntax...

The numbers maybe correct. I was watching my local 24 cable news channel this morning (News12 Long Island). During the Market report they were talking about the upset Nintendo is pulling off. They stated Wii is selling 50% more then 360 and Twice as much as the PS3. If you look at these numbers that is about right.

but it can also make for conceptually better and more robust code. C and C++ projects often have critical errors.

If you're a s***ty programmer that began coding with Java, then yeah, it can.

nope. i've working with code written in C++ and part of projects that cost millions. errors with memory and pointers happen ALL the time. that's why the government paid to create ADA. because C++ programs weren't reliable.

and not talking about simple programs. i'm talking about millions of lines of code. C/C++  gives you great access to the machine but it's structure wasn't created with newer programming models and concepts in mind originally.

I thought similar to you before i worked on large projects and attended gradschool. when it's just you working with code yourself or with one other guy, programs are a lot easier to keep track of all the pointers and memory your using. but when you have hundreds to thousands of files with several teams working on them you can't keep track of everything and the language of c doesn't really help as much as other langauges do. of course it's still a popular language because it's fast, popular, and there's a c/c++ compiler for every platform.

You mean you didn't know Java resembeled C so much? Java was build off the syntax of C programming.

You crazy programmers....

I actually borrowed some C++ learning cds from my work.  I think I'll learn it again, as I took it in high school and a little in college.
