                 programming language for students of a specific type of
                 computer science is presented. The paper motivates the
                 shift from Modula-2 to C++ in the curriculum, shortly
                 describes the course and discusses the statistical
                 evaluation of the results of the last Modula-2 course
                 and the first C++ course, respectively. The main
                 findings of the study are the fact that in contrast to
                 most expectations, the shift from a typical
                 ``educational'' language to a much ``dirtier'' language
                 had no significant effect to the performance of the
                 students taking the course.",
