The environment in which your code runs is imperfect: users will provide invalid inputs, external systems will go down, and your code and other code around it will often contain some number of bugs. Given this, errors are inevitable; things can and will go wrong, and as a result you can’t write robust and reliable code without thinking carefully about error cases.
Learning computer programming languages is no longer a trend but a necessity in several parts of the world. The real issue for many parents and perhaps people who understand coding and the depth of C++ is one – can the kids really understand C++? The answer is Yes, and No. It depends on two main factors. First is your kid’s age, and second is whether there’s a reliable teacher or coach to guide them.
