Advantage of learning C++?

Question

Is it useful to spend time time learning c++ or a person should directly start with java and other languages.

Answer 1

C++ is harder to learn than java or other programming languages. But it definitely important to know. It’s probably the most used language in the industry and you can’t be software developer without knowing it. If you could only learn one programming language (which you shouldn’t), it should be C++

Answer 2

C++ is very useful if you want to know more about how computers work since you will work with pointers and such. Though it is a really complex and hard language to learn especially for beginners.
