True, I have tried to learn VB, but Visual Studio seemed bloated and because I know PHP the syntax or C++ came to me easier and I understood how it worked pretty quickly.
When I say C++ is better than C, I mean why are schools teachings older more outdated languages when they can teach newer ways to code software. Of course C had some advantages over C++. C++ was last revised in 2003 and hopefully should reflect changes in modern software
