Who ever said that C++ was about OO? C++ is a quite usable OO language, but it can also be used as a "better C", ignoring the non-imperative parts. C++ doesn't force any academically interesting design decisions on you. Stroustrup once called C++ a multiparadigm language, and that's what it is. Strong imperative and OO facilities, but there are a few other influences too (like generic aka templates). -- Best Regards, | Hi! I'm a .signature virus.
