Difference between C and C++.

  Difference between c and c++.



As we know both C and C++ are programming languages and used for application development. The main difference between both these languages is C is a procedural programming language and does not support classes and objects, while C++ is a combination of both procedural and object-oriented programming languages.


The following are the important differences between C and C++.


Sr. No. Key  C & C++

1)  Introduction C was developed by Dennis Ritchie in around 1969 at AT&T Bell Labs.


C++ was developed by Bjarne Stroustrup in 1979.

2)  Language Type As mentioned before C is procedural programming. On the other hand,


 C++ supports both procedural and object-oriented programming paradigms.

3) OOPs feature Support As C does not support the OOPs concept so it has no support for polymorphism, encapsulation, and inheritance.


C++ has support for polymorphism, encapsulation, and inheritance as it is being an object-oriented programming language

4)  Data Security As C does not support encapsulation so data behave as a free entity and can be manipulated by outside code.


On another hand in the case of C++ encapsulation hides the data to ensure that data structures and operators are used as intended.

5)  Driven type C in general known as function-driven language.


On the other hand, C++ is known as object driven language.

6)  Feature supported C does not support function and operator overloading also do not have namespace feature and reference variable functionality. On the other hand, 


C++ supports both function and operator overloading also have namespace feature and reference variable functionality
