C++ Introduction

C++ is a cross-platform language that can be used to create high-performance applications.

C++ is one of the world's most popular programming languages.

C++ can be found in today's operating systems, Graphical User Interfaces, and embedded systems.

C++ is an object-oriented programming language which gives a clear structure to programs and allows code to be reused, lowering development costs.

As C++ is close to C# and Java, it makes it easy for programmers to switch to C++ or vice versa.

C++ is fun and easy to learn!

Difference between C and C++ :

1.             C++ was developed as an extension of C, and both languages have almost the same syntax.
2.             The main difference between C and C++ is that C++ support classes and objects, while C does not.

 

            To start using C++, you need two things:

•       A text editor, like Notepad, to write C++ code

•       A compiler, like GCC, to translate the C++ code into a language that the computer will understand

            We will use dev C++

 Applications of C++: 

C++ finds varied usage in applications such as:

• Operating Systems & Systems Programming. e.g. Linux-based OS (Ubuntu etc.)
• Browsers (Chrome & Firefox)
• Graphics & Game engines (Photoshop, Blender, Unreal-Engine)
• Database Engines (MySQL, MongoDB, Redis etc.)
• Cloud/Distributed Systems
