C++ is a very large unwieldly language - it has too many constructs and
too much syntax. Experience has chown that smaller simpler languages are
easier to learn and apply than larger ones. This is why C is still the
language of choice for a lot of systems coding (among other reasons).
While purists will no doubt damn me to hell, I know a lot of people would
put C++ at the bottom of their list of OOP coding languages of choice.
