I literally see no job offers

I was told nobody hires c++ programmers in general and that everyone wants java/c#. Wanted to confirm this.

Well C# was influenced by C++, so if you know sharp you're bound to know the languages beneath that. My friends being taught Java his first semester in college, so I guess that's on the rise even though there are better languages.

Nearly all of my Software Engineering curriculum is based on Java, and that's at the flagship school of my state, so take that however you see it. The only intro C++ class is an elective for other engineering majors, and it's only one class.

actually java is a lot like C#
you can learn C# or Java without knowing the C++ sintaxis at all, but having a reasonable understanding of general programming, a transition to C++ is possible.

C++ is not dying, programming is getting more needed in general. That is way most of the time what's wanted is simple programs that doesn't need to be time efficient but needs to be done quickly

That's where C# comes along, it is way quicker to program something in C# than C++ therefore its cheaper for a company and gets the product faster.

And Java is just as easy and is cross platform.

C++ on the other hand is harder, more expensive and isn't cross platform.
though it is needed for heavy applications.

C++ is not cross platform. Not sure if that or Connor's post was more retarded

But java is terribly inefficient, why do people care so much about cross platform when everyone should be running linux in the first place?

its not really that inefficient, its not the same java from a long time ago.

C++ is not cross platform :/ whats your point?

C++ not cross platform.... lol.
Also they are both good languages to know, but Java has things that may not be the best aswell as C++. You have a lot more control over the system with C++. At the same time Java has great stuff like its garbage collector, I' just saying they are equally as valuable.
