Most likely mastered it. I did C/C++ for a short time and hated it. There should be no reason to have to manage every byte these days unless you want to. You also shouldn't have to worry about different types of strings. And dealing with pointers they way you have to is crazy. Compilers and hardware are so much better today.

>Every time I have to drop down to coding in C or even read stretches of C++, which happens seldom (but the Pascal/Modula line is totally dead) it still feels like an uphill battle. Would I have mastered it or be a basket case by now?
