Pure object oriented programming means, every operation must be done through object only. Without object we can not do any operation. But in C++, we can write perfect / excellent code without using Class / Object. That is why C++ is not pure object oriented programming.

as in object oriented language every attribute must be member of a CLASS.it is true for main() also. in c++ main() can exist independently. so c++ is not termed as object oriented language.

Lot of operations can be performed in the program without creating any instance of a class. For example: main function, string manipulation, arrays etc.

Just to make more clear...JAVA is a pure object oriented programming language. Java requires objects all the time. we can't code anything in Java without declaring classes and objects. Even for the small program "Hello World"(i.e. to display the string). read less
