Deciding whether to study C, C++, or Java depends mainly on your career goals, interests, and the requirements of the projects or industries you're interested in. If you are interested in system-level programming, performance optimization, or game development, then increasing your knowledge in these languages would be beneficial. Although, in today's world where people want maximum output with minimal effort, these languages might fail to fulfill this. They have lengthier codes and come with restrictions, which can require a lot of effort to find alternatives. As a result, many programmers are now taking shelter under alternative languages like Python and JavaScript, which are more popular and comparatively easier to work with. C is highly efficient, and highly portable and not only allows you to perform direct memory manipulation but also is very suitable for system programming and embedded operations. C++ which is an advancement to the C language, has rich libraries, OOP concept of programming, and it provides efficient low-level memory manipulation and inline assembly support. It also provides backward compatibility which means c codes can also be run successfully in C++ compilers. Java programs are compiled into byte code which can run on any JVM environment making it highly portable, it also has a large standard library and can be used very efficiently to implement the OOP concepts. It even has an inbuilt garbage collector which automatically performs memory management tasks. One of the biggest drawbacks of C is it lacks automatic memory management, it cannot perform abstraction which means cannot perform garbage collection or exception handling, and even lacks OOP support. As for C++, it is more complex and even this language does not have an inbuilt memory manager which makes it more error-prone because memory management is done manually, and it also uses a lot of complex templates. Since Java is compiled into byte code and runs on a JVM, it might lower performance compared to C and C++. It has limited suitability for system-level programming. C is efficient and suitable for system programming but lacks modern-day features, C++ has OOP support and high performance but can be complex and requires manual memory management, Java is platform-independent with built-in memory management and a large standard library but has performance overhead and finds its limitations in system-programming. Despite their limitations, C, C++, and Java have features that make them stand out. Java is well-known for its reliability and security and is still the preferred language for enterprise-level software development and Android applications. C is a low-level language that is still in demand in industries like automotive, aerospace, and defense. C++ is an extension of C, adding object-oriented programming (OOP) features that are in high demand in gaming and finance. Moreover, they provide a strong foundation for advanced languages where coding is minimal. Concepts like pointers, arrays, structures, and OOP concepts can be far better understood in C, C++, and Java. These languages offer a coding experience that allows programmers to work closer to the hardware and implement concepts like poly morphism, encapsulation, inheritance, classes, and objects. While some may go so far as to claim that C, C++, and Java are "dead" languages, this claim is nothing more than an illusion. These languages are still used for legacy code maintenance and enhancements of existing software. Many notable and popular companies like Daimler, Mercedes Benz, Boston Dynamics, Airbus, Google, and SpaceX still list a minimum of 2 years of experience in these languages as qualifications for job opportunities. To conclude, C, C++, and Java are still relevant and provide a solid foundation for programming in advanced languages. They are not outdated and continue to be used in various industries. If you really want to improve your logic building, no doubt C & C++ are the best programming language for you to begin with. So, studying these languages can be more worthwhile than you would have imagined.

It is high time for learning
We have taken all the steps to ensure smooth and quality learning, read what our clients have to say about us.
The classes attended were very much informative. The classes which I attended was on Machine Learning using Python. I learnt a lot there about the algorithms and various topics of the Machine Learning. The practical classes were very much interesting. Needed a more practical classes for each topics, which will help to understand at the level of best.
We learnt the concepts well and how to implement the algorithms in simple way.i like your teaching because you clearly explain the program line by line,so it was easy for us to understand the function of each line.
Classes were good, we need more explanation based on those specific topics or algorithms. Definitely , cultskills will make strong base for concepts (domain) as well as for your career. Thanks a lot!
Explaining the concepts in the way that everyone understands. Trainers are capable enough to make the students and the industry people get the concepts that they say.
It was really a great experience of learning with cult skills. Completed the Curriculam as of industrial standards and the interactive sessions allowed me to grasp the topic to their depths. Got to explore lot of new things from this course that will help me in my future ventures with ML and Web Development.
I've learnt a lot about the Python after joining the course provided to us. Our trainer is very informative, helpful and is having a positive approach towards problem solving. Really gained a vast knowledge about the course.
I have completed deep learning course from cult skills. Very interactive sessions, experienced staff and quality classes delivered by good trainers. Curriculum was covered along with industrial experience.
Nice experience. Detailed and interactive courses. Assignments are provided after each lecture. Doubt clearance session. Perfect approach for students who want to learn and explore new topics.
