C/C++ Programming for Beginners
Basic to Advance

Introduction to C++ 🔝

What is C++ Programming Language ?

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.
It is developed at AT and T's Bell Lab (USA) in 1979
The language was updated 4 major times in 2011, 2014, 2017, and 2020 to C++11, C++14, C++17, C++20.
C++ is fun and easy to learn!
As C++ is close to C# and Java, it makes it easy for programmers to switch to C++ or vice versa.

Application of C++

To start using C++, you need two things:

A text editor, like Notepad, to write C++ code
A compiler, like GCC, to translate the C++ code into a language that the computer will understand

An IDE (Integrated Development Environment) is used to edit AND compile the code.

Popular IDE's include: Code::Blocks, Eclipse, and Visual Studio Code. These are all free, and they can be used to both edit and debug C++ code.

I will be using Visual Studio Code in this Project, which I believe is a good place to start.

You can find the latest version of VSCode at https://code.visualstudio.com/.

Follow this process to install and setup VSCode , which will install the text editor with a compiler.

Let's create our first C++ file.
Open VSCode and go to File > New Text File.
Write the following C++ code and save the file as myfirstprogram.cpp (File > Save File as):

// myfirstprogram.cpp

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main() {
  cout << "Hello World!";
  return 0;
}

What is C Programming Language ?

C is a general-purpose programming language created by Dennis Ritchie at the Bell Laboratories in 1972.
It is a very popular language, despite being old.
C is strongly associated with UNIX, as it was developed to write the UNIX operating system.
Both C/C++ has the same features and applications

NOTE C and C++ uses the same compiler and IDE

Let's create our first C file.
Open VSCode and go to File > New Text File.
Write the following C code and save the file as myfirstprogram.c (File > Save File as):

// myfirstprogram.c


#include <stdio.h>

int main() {
  printf("Hello World!");
  return 0;
}

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++ support classes and objects, while C does not.
