Simple And Easy Introduction of CPP

Hii everyone, This is just a simple introduction of cpp language

CPP introduction

...

Some basic points of cpp programming language.

  • The C++ were first invented by Bjarne Stroustrup in 1979.
  • C++ is a programming language began as an expanded version of C.
  • The alternative name of cpp programming is "c with classes".
  • You can say -> this is the extension of c programming.
    • Because the inventor of cpp (Bjarne Stroustrup) introduce a object oriented concept in c language that is classes.
    • That is why c++ is also called "c with classes".
  • CPP is high level language.
    • High level language : you can get various definitions of high level language. but in simple or in slang words --> "the high level language is those programming languages which is near about to hardware or memory management".
    • CPP is generally use to develop the system software and the system software needs to manages our memory in system that is why CPP is high level language and why we use cpp to develop the system software
This is some point that I think everyone should know if you starting CPP or a beginner in CPP.

I know there is not something special in this post but if you are beginner in programming and found something new , you can give me a reaction😁😁

This is some point that I think everyone should know if you starting CPP or a beginner in CPP.

That is why c++ is also called "c with classes".

And everyone should also know that this name was the name before the name C++ appears, 25 years ago or something.

They are now completely different languages.

You don't know C++ if you know C.

You don't have to learn C before learning C++.

Modern C++ is nothing like C.

This is important :)
