Should you learn C++ in 2018

[administrator]

Hi,

A did a video about the viability and job opportunities of C++ in 2018.

Some general comments:

C++ is the engine building programming language that you use when you need super high performance. These days, in the age ultra fast CPU's and mature development platforms, its' use will probably continue over time ... especially since Swift runs nearly as fast as C++ at run-time ...and without all the C++ hassles.

Here is the video - you might want to have a coffee while watching:

This is basic programming language and if you are expert in this you can easily learn most of the language .

Any thoughts on Game Programming as a feasible career with C++?  One of my concerns is I hear some studios cause burnout from making coders work very long hours.
