Difference between C and C++

What is C?

C is a programming language developed at AT &T’s Bell laboratories of USA by Dennis Ritchie. Soon many people began to use C instead of other languages such as FORTRAN,ALGOL etc.C became so popular because it was simple,reliable and easy to use.C falls in middle level language which is in between High level languages or Problem oriented language and Low level or Machine oriented languages.

What is C++?

C++ was developed by  Bjrane Stroustrup at  AT &T’s Bell laboratories of USA. Stroustrup wanted  to develop an  object-oriented programming  language with the features of C.As a result C++ was born.In 1983  Rick Mascitti coined the term C++.

Difference between C and C++

  • C is function-oriented   language and C++ is object-oriented.
  • C uses top to bottom approach while C++ uses the bottom to top approach.
  • In C, we cannot give same name to a function and in C++ more  than one function can be created if the parameters or arguments  are different which means that function overloading is absent in C.
  • Data hiding concept is  absent in C which means that Data is not protected in C whereas data  is protected in C++.
  • C uses printf() and scanf() functions to write and read  data while C++ uses cout and cin objects for these operations.
  • Constructors and destructors are not  present in C.
  • C does not have namespace feature which avoid name collisions.
  • C does  not support friend functions  which is supported in C++.
