C++ or JAVA and WHY?

Give your opinion

[Noki]

For what? Web, operating system, game, search engine or a web browser?

Each programming language serves its own function. Some better than others. But no language is really objectively better than another for general use (unless it's something ridiculous like whitespace). It's like a toolbox. Each tool within serves its own purpose. I would have a much easier time screwing a screw with a screwdriver than I would with a hammer.

As Noki said, each language is like a toolbox with its own purpose. However, I would chose Java over C++ just for the simple reason that it is a fairly easy language to learn and write in, especially compared to C++, and because Java is cross platform compatible.
