Hi there, I am a third (maybe second year for US standard?) year mathematical physics student and I have just realize that I do need obtain some programming knowledge.
My university has a compulsory courses that teaches java programming, but, looking around I've come to the conclusion that probably getting some knowledge in languages like C(s) could be preferable.
Here comes the "problem": should I begin with C++ or with C? I know they are very different, but at the same time they look very similar (all I know of programming in java and c++ goes just to the very beginning of OOD, and I just studied the very basics of syntax in C).
So, if anyone could give me some "clear" example of the possible application of this two programs (c and c++) in the scientific world, that would be perfect!
Apologies for any English mistake...^_^
