C# vs C++

Name: Anonymous 2009-10-01 16:56

I'm not looking to start some sort of fanboy arguement.

Is the ease in development brought by C# worth more than the power/speed of C++?

I'm writing a genetic algorithim so speed is pretty important.
I can't find any legit benchmark test so I'm lookin for oppinions here.

Now you have 2 problems.

Who the fuck even uses C# ? Just use sepples.

On behalf of C#, I have to say, that LINQ thing looks pretty interesting. But I never used it, so what the fuck do I know?

C++ has no power or speed. However, in reality, ease of development trumps both of those most of the time anyway.

But for a genetic algorithm, use C. Preferably C calls from a Foreign Function Interface of a higher level language.

C# is only good if you want to make money

I have used LINQ and can tell you it's fucking amazing. Being able to write queries directly in the language is a major advantage, and that LINQ works against many different types of things (objects, XML, SQL, Entities, etc.) is even better.

Does it gain you all that much over list expressions when you're not dealing with SQL? I haven't seen many compelling examples.

Sepples is only worthwhile for things that absolutely need the performance and would benefit from the features of Sepples, e.g. inheritance.

Games are a specific problem domain that work decently with Sepples, but that's about it. Outside of gaming, there really isn't much use in Sepples.

Almost all other languages do other functions better, e.g. C for device drivers, C#, D, Delphi, etc. for userspace, and so on.

That's because no such thing exists

This is what people on /prog/ actually believe!!!

I've seen a case where a C# implementation of a C++ 3D game yielded a good improvement in speed. It just shows that a badly thought out design yielded poor performance, while a well thought out implementation in a higher-level language can yield better performance (be it C#, or more superior languages).

An UO clone.

If you want speed you can more or less count on, you use C. If you want to code at a higher level than C, embed lua in C. Don't fucking bother with C++. It is worse than garbage.
