C is Procedural Oriented where as C++ is Object Oriented, C main() function returns nothing i.e. void and C++ main() function returns int.

There is no big difference. In both languages, It is the starting point of the execution and occupies bottom frame of the stack.

c is a procedural language i.e., it focuses on logic. It contains a systematic order of statements, functions and commands to complete a computational task or program mainly where as C++ is an object oriented language and emphasizes on classes and objects. C++ is extended from C and thus is super-set of C . inheritance concept is used in C++ to introduce program's re-usability. polymorphism is introduced so that different types of objects can be accessed through a same base class. c follows a top to bottom approach and main() is given on top whereas in C++ ,as it follows a bottom up approach the function definitions are given prior to main(). by default in C main() returns nothing as it is void main(void) but in C++ by default it is int main(void) and it returns an integer. read less
