Is C++ in demand?

Question

IT education

Started learning C++ (after C#), but recently questions of alternatives/relevance have arisen. I googled everything, and as a result I saw falling graphs of C ++ regarding the labor market, claims to the language like "it is used only in legacy and game dev" and advice to switch to some kind of Java or Python.

Can you tell me if it is worth learning crosses at all, or are they a thing of the past and the market needs pythonists with their ml? Initially, I wanted to write anything for the desktop, and the pros seemed like a logical choice, but maybe there are some other ways that are more reliable in terms of price / quality (time / money)?

Answer 1

Once again and slowly: "There are no "demanded" PLs, there are programmers in demand"
If you can write good necessary programs in C #, Java or Python, then you can easily write no less good and necessary ones in any other PL, including C + +. If you are not able to write programs in principle, then "knowing" even 20 languages ​​will not help you with this.
And "falling graphics" is nothing more than pop music. The entry threshold for C#, Python, and even Java is disproportionately lower than for C++, so there are far fewer shitty coders in C++ than in other languages, which determines the very "fall"

Answer 2

What do you think engines for ML and other libraries write on? Yes, any hardcore code where speed is very important?
It is in C++, C, ASM.
But the question is stupid.

Answer 3

We went to XX and looked.
