Thanks for the heads up. From the outside looking in, my perception of the difficulty of learning C++ is knowing what is idiomatic or not, with the understanding that that differs depending on who you work for and with.
It is the same as in other languages: you do the simplest thing that gets the job done. Loops, particularly C-style "for" loops, often do not count as simple, despite their familiarity: std:: algorithms leave less scope for error.
