Write a simple source code

[S_Grimm]

I agree with bbi5291. If it compiles and runs under a C++ compiler, it can be considered C++ code. Even if it uses outdated header files and code. But hey, im not judgemental.

Come on now, arguing semantics has never gotten anyone anywhere.

If you're writing 90% inline assembly, I think we can all agree that, even if you consider that C++ code, it's definitely not idiomatic C++ code.

wow, this topic has come a long way from outputting "C++ Programming is fun!"

Not quite the message the OP wanted, but it is idiomatic.

c++:

#include <iostream> #include <string> class Greeter {     private:         std::string name;     public:         Greeter(std::string n);         const std::string get_name();         friend std::ostream& operator<<(std::ostream& out, const Greeter& g); }; int main() {     std::cout << Greeter("C++") << std::endl; } Greeter::Greeter(std::string n) : name(n) { } const std::string Greeter::get_name() {     return name; } std::ostream& operator(std::ostream& out, const Greeter& g) {     return out << "Hello " << g.get_name(); }

Now you're talking. Glad to see somebody knows how to write real C++ .

[bbi5291]

If that were real C++, then any sane C++ programmer would be using Java instead. But wait, that hasn't happened...

[wtd]

It's showing you the power of using the << operator. And yes, that's real C++ code.

[bbi5291]

Of course, I didn't mean to assert that it's fake C++ code. What I meant is that if C++ is expected to look like that for such a simple program, nobody would ever use it to write such a program.

Not here, not now.

This thread was merely used to answer jhooper3581's question. If you have anything else to discuss, do it elsewhere.

[No, I have every right to state my opinion. I am not suggesting that any action should be taken, just that I believe that they ought to take the conversation elsewhere.]

Just for fun.

c++:

#include <iostream> using namespace std; template<char c,class T> struct lol {         lol()         {                 cout << c;                 T x;         } }; int main() {         lol<'C',         lol<'+',         lol<'+',         lol<' ',         lol<'p',         lol<'r',         lol<'o',         lol<'g',         lol<'r',         lol<'a',         lol<'m',         lol<'m',         lol<'i',         lol<'n',         lol<'g',         lol<' ',         lol<'i',         lol<'s',         lol<' ',         lol<'f',         lol<'u',         lol<'n',         lol<'!',         lol<'\n',         int> > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > LOL;         return 0; }
