C++ or Java?

Which programming language has the most return on investment? Impact on real world systems, and is more rewarding? I have minimal programming experience and working on AS in CS.

java has a higher return on investment for someone with minimal programming experience. It's widely used in enterprise environments, particularly for backend systems, and it's known for its portability across different platforms. Plus, the object oriented nature of Java makes it easier to learn and apply to real world systems. You'll find that Java's ecosystem is extensive, with a lot of libraries and tools that can help you build comprehensive applications.
