The importance of C++

int main ()
{

As a student in electrical and electronic engineering, it never cross my mind how important programming will be. We have computer programming and software programmers and even IT specialist for those right ? No.

Engineers are also expected to have strong knowledge in C languages. What the hell. Out of my various interviews there are more than half that came to me this question :

" How strong are you in C languages ? "

Although i am proficient in MATLAB, it is still not good enough. One particular interviwer pointed out it is no use if you only know to call the function.

" You need to know how to write that function out in C. Only knowing to call the function is useless. MATLAB is just a learning tool that has no value outside in the industry. "

Like I am supposed to know that since im studying ELECTRICAL and ELECTRONIC ENGINEERING.

Not a PROGRAMMER.
