Welcome back! C++ is a very popular programming language used by tons of different companies/projects, if you're new to C++, check out the link below to learn more:
So, let's talk about a few different reasons why you should still learn C++!
Popularity

One of the main advantages of using C++ is that this language is still one of the most popular programming languages right now, even though it's several decades old! Check out the TIOBE index below that breaks down the most popular programming languages right now:

Although it may not be as popular as it was before, it's definitely still worth learning for sure.
Speed/Performance

Another big advantage of C++ is the speed/performance of this language, why is this language so fast? Compared to other languages (like Python), this language is "closer" to the hardware of your system rather than languages like Python.
Many Tutorials/Projects

Whenever I look at a new programming language to learn, I always look at the ecosystem of that language, essentially the amount of tutorials/projects I can build as a beginner, luckily for you, this language has a huge community behind it. Without a doubt, if you're planning on learning a new language, you will find many resources for this language.
Salary

Another big reason to learn C++ is the amount of jobs/the salary with this language. In fact, this article I wrote a few months ago breaks down the languages with the highest salaries, and C++ was on that list:

You can check out that article below:
If you're planning on learning a new language, C++ has one of the highest average salaries for a programming language!
There you have it! Those are a few different reasons why you should learn C++, do you have any other reasons why C++ is still learning? I would love to hear your thought about this!
