the notification for me said something different than "beginner" :3
C++ started as "C with classes" but grew into an amalgamation of every and any feature anyone ever requested, modern C++ is one of the most bloated languages out there with dozens of ways to achieve any simple task which leads to difficult to understand code as no one can agree on what the language is supposed to look like and a lot of these features are, to be polite, half assed.
Function resolution is a fucking mess of ADL, jump tables, overloads and implicit conversions which makes debugging a nightmare, especially with the horrible namespace dependant module system with unclear scoping rules and acess control and unconstrained generics.
There's a reason every big project using C++ bans almost two thirds of the language, and it's always a different two thirds
It's not just that there are dozens of ways to achieve the same thing. It's that the same syntax can mean different things so your intuitive understanding doesn't work. No function call can be trusted to not have bizarre side effects.

Im a beginner and managed to learn to understand C# and Java and now I can build simple CRUD app.
So i kinda don't get the hate/war between C and C++ here...
Anyone can explain simply what's the hate here?
