C is (theoretically)a fairly simple language, since it doesn't have
object-oriented programming and other features of more modern languages.

C++, on the other hand, can get a little tricky/messy, but it's also a very
powerful language, so it can be good to know.  They addedquite a bit of good
stuff to the C++ 2011 standard, and C++ is still used for quite a bit of things
these days.

I saw something online recently that said "I know more about Star Trek than I
do about sports - And I'm okay with that."  ;)
