C++ Introduction

C++ is a cross-platform language that can be used to create high-performance applications.

C++ was developed by Bjarne Stroustrup, as an extension to the C language .

C++ gives programmers a high level of control over system resources and memory.

The language was updated 5 major times in 2011, 2014, 2017, 2020, and 2023 to C++11, C++14, C++17, C++20, and C++23.

C++ is one of the world's most popular programming languages.

C++ can be found in today's operating systems, Graphical User Interfaces, and embedded systems.

C++ is an object-oriented programming language which gives a clear structure to programs and allows code to be reused, lowering development costs.

C++ is portable and can be used to develop applications that can be adapted to multiple platforms.

C++ is fun and easy to learn!

As C++ is close to C , C# and Java , it makes it easy for programmers to switch to C++ or vice versa.

C++ was developed as an extension of C , and both languages have almost the same syntax.

The main difference between C and C++ is that C++ supports classes and objects, while C does not.

When you are finished with this tutorial, you will be able to write C++ programs and create real-life examples.

It is not necessary to have any prior programming experience.
