Most colleges in Kerala teach C/C++ programming using Turbo C/C++. It is a 16 bit compiler which predates ANSI C/C++ standard by a decade. It does not support templates , STL , exception handling,Windows programming , Socket programming etc.
The same students find breathtaking graphics being shown in their games. To program games , one should use a game engine or a custom game engine which runs on top of either DirectX or OpenGL. To do this , the students need to learn 32 bit or 64 bit windows programming using Visual C/C++ or a 32 bit compiler which runs on top of Windows.
The other day , a person who was reporting to me joined a company which is a name to reckon with in the software services industry. This bangalore based "Tiger" teaches there fresh recruits C/C++ using Turbo C/C++ !!
These software superbrains will advise next generation of youngsters to learn C/C++ using Turbo C/C++. It is a kind of software "ragging".
