C++

 Definition - What is C++?

 

C++ before it’s standard initialization in 1988 even though it first appeared in 1985 it was developed by  Bjarne Stroustrup at Bell Labs since 1979. Bjarne Stroustrup decided to start development of C++ at 1979 first called as “ C with classes” as predecessor of C. Bjarne Stroustrup wanted to create programming language as flexible as C but more and hemade it to support object-oriented programming and generic programming completely different from C but still made after principles of C. Now at 2018 it stands at 4th most popular programming language after Javascript, Python and Java. On Janaury 3,2018 developer of C++ Bjarne Stroustrup was winner of Charles Stark Draper Prize for Engineering.

 You can write a C program and compile it in C++, but you still are writing C not C++. Now as for principles:

i)  It must be driven by actual problems and its features should be useful immediately in real world programs.

ii)  Every feature should be implementable

iii)  Allowing a useful feature is more important than preventing every possible misuse of C++.

iv)  It should provide facilities for organising programs into well-defined separate parts, and provide facilities for combining separately              developed parts.

v)  No implicit violations of the type system (but allow explicit violations; that is, those explicitly requested by the programmer).

vi)  User-created types need to have the same support and performance as built-in types.

vii)  Unused features should not negatively impact created executables (e.g. in lower performance).

viii)  There should be no language beneath C++ 

ix)  C++ should work alongside other existing programming languages, rather than fostering its own separate and incompatible programming         environment.

 Even though C++ is made on basic principles of C the codes are somewaht similar to C such as:

C uses printf(“”); for output

       scanf("",&); for input

C++ uses cout << for output 

         cin<< for input

  Finally here are some sites incase you want to learn C++:

       Udemy(https://www.udemy.com/free-learn-c-tutorial-beginners)

       Sololearn(https://www.sololearn.com/Course/CPlusPlus/)

       Edx(https://www.edx.org/learn/c)

  Some software that is made via C++ are: Adobe, Google Applications, MySQL Server, Winamp Media Player. All in all C++ is one of basic language if you want to learn software programming and make some good softwares or programs.
