As C is not object oriented, it has several limitations ie, it does not have features like encapsulation,data hiding,overloading,polymorphism, virtual functions etc. which are all present in C++ as it's object oriented. 3. C does not support namespace feature while C++ does. 4. I/O functions used in C are printf and scanf while in C++, it is cin and cout. 5. C++ can be told as superset of C. 6. C is a function-driven language while C++ is an object drive language. 7. Data is not secured in C while its secured in C++ due to the OOPS feature,data hiding. 8. C uses calloc(),malloc(),dealloc() for allocation and deallocation of memory while C++ uses new and delete for the same. read less

C is structure oriented and C++ is partially object oriented. C++ has advanced futures of C. The decision making statement such as "if , if else , switch, break and continue" are same in both C and C++. The major difference is we can use classes in C++ but not in C.

The major difference between C and C++ is that C is a procedural programming language and does not support classes and objects, while C++ is a combination of both procedural and object oriented programming language; therefore C++ can be called a hybrid language.

Frankly C++ is the super-set of C Language. If one knows C++ indicates he has knowledge of C as well. However programming pattern of C is solely structured programming but C++ supports object oriented. Bjerne Stroustrup when he designed C++, initially he has named it as C with Classes. By this you can...

Frankly C++ is the super-set of C Language. If one knows C++ indicates he has knowledge of C as well. However programming pattern of C is solely structured programming but C++ supports object oriented. Bjerne Stroustrup when he designed C++, initially he has named it as C with Classes. By this you can judge that C++ is just an extended version of C, that is why it is named as C and plus and plus (kind of incremented). NOTE that everything that you have in C can be used in C++ in the same way (with few modification). read less

It is absolutely necessary as without inclusion of the same to your program, will lead to the absence of library functions that are present in the header files, your program will have a syntax error.

How can a program be made to print the line number where an error occurs?
The ANSI C standard includes a predefined macro named __LINE__ that can be used to insert the current source code line number in your program. This can be a very valuable macro when it comes to debugging your program and checking for logic errors.
