Java and C++ at the same time?

Im currently taking an introduction to java course in my high school and next year im planning to take AP Java





so, i was wandering if it was a good idea to take a C++ course over the summer





would it be better to finish learning one first and then learn the other one? or, it doesnt realy matter?

Java and C++ at the same time?
If you have learned Java you will find C++ very similar. I doubt if it will cause you problems on the AP Java exam. Be sure you have a firm understanding of inheritance and the minor differences between the two languages, and a firm understanding of object oriented programming.





My son learned C++ in college while he worked on his degree in computer science. But when he got his job in 2005 after graduating, he programmed in Java.





After I retired, I taught a general Java and an AP Java classes in high school. 80% of my AP students passed their exam.





Oh, you can go onto the AP Java web site and see the types of questions that were asked on prior tests. Don't be intimidated or worry. You will probably do well with both languages under your belt by the time you take the AP exam.
