I need some advice.

[iyenal]

So that's where I am at. Should I pursue another programmer, if so how do you suppose I should go about doing that? Or if I should try my hand again at C++?

Take another course. And if you fail another time, continue to take another course.
It is with perseverance that you will succeed. Plus, more you fail, more you will end up a god in C++ when you will succeed

About the C++ as a type of language, I would advise you to learn another language if it's possible. I know many languages, but I admit that I never understood C++ it is like a mental block, personally even C is much easier.
