Are his friends computer science or software engineering majors? And
if so how far along are they in taking their major courses? There are
probably few comp sci and sw eng majors who graduate without at least
one C++ course.
There are many college students taking general programming courses who
do not and probably should not take C++. Non-CS/SWE majors who want
to take one or two programming courses should probably learn VB in my
opinion.
