"
One of their main reasons why they choose C++ over Eiffel, Ada etc. is:
They intend to confront the students with the "'dark side' of programming"
(verbatim!) to better prepare them for reality."
I think they mean the dark side of coding, not of programming, but then
very often university professors teaching these kinds of courses don't
make this distinction :-)
