However, even with these challenges, it is important for students to continue learning this programming language. This article highlights reasons why one should keep learning C/C++.

Android Operating System: One Potential Vulnerability per 4000 Lines of C++ Code
For many years, Andrey Karpov has been publishing articles on code quality, and bugs reviews of open source projects. For example, he is the author of such publications as “The Ultimate Question of Programming, Refactoring, and Everything” and “27 000 Errors in the Tizen Operating System“.
Recently, the open source Android operating system has become of interest for him. He researched that part of the operating system code, which is written in the C and C++ languages. After that he came to a conclusion, which always takes place after such research: human error is always possible. By using the PVS-Studio tool, it becomes possible to detect at least one security defect (potential vulnerability) per 4000 lines of code.

Search for Bugs in Code at the Early Stage
Every developer knows about a debugger, version control system or, for example, unit-tests. Nevertheless, not all developers are familiar with the methodology of static code analysis. Meanwhile, the technology becomes an integral part of the development cycle of programs. I would like to suggest a small introductory course for anyone interested in modern development trends.
