 ===== When to use C++ =====
+Whenever you have questions about time or memory limits, C++ is typically a safer path than [[python3|Python3]]. C++ contains most of the C library (when limits really put you in a pinch) and(at a higher level) boasts a well-established [[http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/|standard library]] of generics through templates. Many competitive programmers are versed in preprocessor macros that make C++ feel more like [[python3|Python3]] as well.
 ===== When not to use C++ =====
-Unlike [[python3_ref|Python3]], it is difficult to argue that C++ is ever a //poor// choice for a contest problem. Well-written C++ is difficult to beat in terms of runtime efficiency.

-However, for all the benefits of C++, well written [[python3_ref|Python3]] can be generated in fewer keystrokes than is possible in C++ or Java.((The standard "[[cpp_hello_world|Hello World!]]" in C++ takes can be accomplished in 107 keystrokes (not including editor commands) including the inclusion of ''iostream'', the use of ''namespace std'', typical whitespace/formatting, and C++ streams for output. It is virtually impossible (in any language) to beat the 22 characters of "[[python3_hello_world|Hello World]]" in Python3.)) This is due to both the terse syntax, and the lack of any required boilerplate in the most basic program.
