Introduction of Cpp

In this introduction we learn about Cpp. It is a general-purpose programming language that was developed as an enhancement of the C language to include Object Oriented Programming (OOPs). It is an imperative and a compiled language.

History of C++

This Language was developed by Bjarne Stroustrup at bell labs in 1979. The problem arose that C could not perform the object-oriented task so efficiently, so the developer designed the programming language CPP. When the language was in the developing stage, and the prototype was ready, the language was named C with classes. As in programming logic, it is considered as a variable counter addition by one, so this language is the advanced version of C language (++ is an increment operator in C). in 1985, the first compiler C front was released to accommodate the CPP language code coded by the developer. In 1989 CPP is the official language affiliated with ANSI.

Applications of C++

It finds varied usage in applications such as:

Operating System & Systems Programming like Linux based OS.
Browsers
Graphics & game Engines like Blender, Photoshop, etc
Database Engines like MySQL, MongoDb, etc
Cloud or Distributed Systems

Characteristics of C++

Object-Oriented Programming
Machine Independent
Simple
High-Level Language
Popular
Case-sensitive
Compiler Based
Dynamic Memory Allocation
Memory Management
Multi-threading

Advantage and Disadvantage of C++

Advantages of C++	Disadvantages of C++
Available on Most machines	Complex structure, time consuming
Best performance	Difficult implementation of web architecture
Small Size	Softening of object oriented ideas
Manage Memory Effectively	Many possibilities for dirty programming
Control everything	Garbage collection is not handled automatically
Good supply for programmers	Error return code no enforced error
Suitable for almost any type of program
