Bjarne's paper on

Learning Standard C++ as a new language. focuses on explaining the whats going underneath when you are using Standard C++ to bring efficiency, which user has to take care when using C.
He also encourages to learn C++ as a language and use the facilities provided by the language and library maximum. Don't fall into or go by the C approach.Yeah, we often find this in many of his papers and teachings. His books start with explaining about vectors in the first chapter itself. Says learning C as subset of C++ does not help.
Encourages to use the Standard Libraries to the maximum extent and when ever possible. For that we need to get to know and learn the methods provided by the Standard library.
Look it different, a good programmer in C++ would be coding in the similar way as programmer in python or java? Its just that some of us from C, want to use the C++ that way?
