If you can code in C/C++, you can code in any language. Moreover, you can tackle any programming problem you want. No other language can make as powerful a claim (perhaps Haskell). However, I've noticed a dearth of Meetup groups devoted to the language (even Haskell has a presence here!) and as an enterprising independent citizen who wants to refresh his own C++ skills, I've created this group, The San Francisco C/C++ Group. My thinking is that there are other people who would like to learn how …
