C vs C++

Hey thanks for watching! Made a small mistake in the video in saying any C code is valid C++ code. In more recent C++ this actually not the case, but is true for most cases.

C++ is superior because I love the cout and cin functions. Say you want to output some text, followed by a variable, followed by more text. In c, and other languages, you do

printf("Hello there your number is %d have a good day", variablename);

in c++

cout << "Hello there your number is " << variablename << " have a good day" << endl;

in my opnion that's easier to do and you don't have to memorize %c, %d, %s, and its also easier to output several variables, such as

cout << variable1name << " " << variable2name << " " << variable3name << " " << variable4name << endl;

The phrase "any valid C code is a valid C++ code" is incorrect. C++ is missing a few C keywords like restrict.

C# users:

Should you use C++ or <insert literally ANY other language here>? Yeah, you should use <insert literally ANY other language here>.

i love c and dont like c++ that much

Learning other languages is easy if you know C++. For example, Java, C#, Python, JavaScript, etc. - saying from personal experience.

F*ck, I was drinking hot coffee while you showed PHP.

I get the feeling Linus is still mad at me about that NVidia thing.

"Learn C before you learn C++" is like telling someone to learn Latin before learning Italian.

Yes, it might help you see where some concepts stem from, but 99% of the time that just isn't worthwhile. They're not really the same at all.

Albeit C++ is just C with modern features, learning C++ is not like learning C and then complementing it with the modern paradigms, most often it comes down to learning the basic C concepts and instead of delving into the nitty-gritty of the convoluted software-hardware logic, putting this fancy looking abstract "facade" for "professionals should not bother with the details and just do their job(Stroustrup 🤦‍♂)"(well guess what that's the reason why half the C++ programmers suck at programming). Having said that, if you have enough passion you will be fine either way, it's just that C++ skips some fences and well... you will have to get back to them someday,

Arduino uses c++ not c.

arduino is c++

Yes, the legendary coder, Bidian Ståsoup.

C++ is better than C because have class. Good day 👍

Eh... C#?

ur quote on how c programmers often prefer creating their own libraries "instead of stealing other peoples libraries" Is dumb, u might as well write ur own functions & make ur own types & keywords then instead of using the in built ones. Like why would u not use an abstraction that was written by someone better than you? Massive cope 🤡

by not all C code is valid in c++, the fault of the restrict keyword in c

INCREDIBLE

C > C--

Can you live a link on that page of C++ with the things to learn about and in what order?

Why do you not have over a million subs????(What I mean is you create great videos)

Yes, I'm going to stick with C.

The "Any C code is also valid C++ code" is laughable nowdays. It might have been true a very long time ago, but those days are long gone.

c is not a subset of c++

Use C for small, simple programs. Use C++ for large, complex projects. The end.

Python.

c++ easy choices

Unless you are an independent programmer, you don't choose the programming language when being hired by a company.

Well I dont think low level languages are replacing by modern technology because c and cpp are the fastest languages where most modern technologies are quite slow. So when there are mission critical things and timing considerations c and cpp are going to be there for a long time to come.

Why he put a shit on php....

where is C#?

There's really only two reasons for prefering C over C++, compilation time and size, for VERY constrained environments.

Linus Torvalds did the thing whole GNU community couldn't at the age of 22, I know it's not mandatorily true just because he said that but it can enough to make me biased against C++.

Use Rust :)

To be perfectly honest I’ve used C for about 5 years but have never once even touched C++.

I reckon it must be nice to have strings and/or classes though

u should use none of these. I hate C thanks to my collage teachers. They forced me to code linux core in vim I haaaaate C the worst language ever.

AAAAACTUALY arduino is programed in C++

C++ is going obsolete?! I guess I'll learn assembly instead...

I'd consider C++ the Computer Scientist's best friend. There are a lot of C++ applications and uses in the technical fields like Engineering and scientific research. But, if someone is trying to get into programming as a self taught programmer, learning languages meant for App and website development will be a lot more important. I can't think of a single C++ developer job listing that didn't require at least a degree in either Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a decade of experience with the language.

javascript

I was using C for a small test app a few weeks ago, but switched to C++. I just can't live without RAII, smart pointers, exceptions, std::vector, etc. and easily factoring different things into classes. Calling malloc and free in C just drives me nuts now.

Funniest programmer

Why do you represent PHP with the poo emoji?

Guys if u don’t try c or c++ in web
I have problems
It’s amazing to understand socket and threads
By c c++

"Learn C if you want tl work on embedded systems"
shows Arduino C++

Dumbest things ive ever heard. just use c++. you can do the same things as c. if you dont like a feature or arent going to use it, ignore it.

I wished if they thought us c++ instead of c# so i can understand why people are mad of this language

It's sad that my first experience in learning coding was with C++.

Hehe rust
