Anti-C++ Hipsters

People who hate C++ are only doing so because it's hip and cool to hate on something that seems too complex at first glance. You want to be seen as cool and edgy, as someone who goes against the grain, when in reality you're just another annoying undergraduate that will probably have a hard time finding a job in the field.

C++ is not perfect, but no language is. Get over it.

rvals are for all intents and purposes the same as what you call "values". and "types" and "variables" are very different things. variables, when assignable, are "lvals". so any distinction you can make between "values" and "variables" will be the same as the distinction between lvals and rvals. however, that distinction is not germane to type safety. whether something is an lval or an rval is just another attribute of a token in an expression. rvals can't be on the left side of an assignment, or passed in to a function by reference. other than that, they are pretty much the same. for discussions of type safety or casting, lval vs rval isn't very interesting.

anyway, you give away your own youth with your immaturity.
