Do you prefer C, or C++? - Slingshot - 06-29-2018

I prefer C for its simplicity. It is a very simple language to learn and understand at its base. Then, you can just learn how to use different libraries. It's easy for me to program in. I tried C++ before, but it is pretty complex and bloated in my opinion. What do you think? :-)

C is indeed a simple language, but C++ supports object-oriented programming, and is more widely used (especially concerning video game development).

I'm learning C first because, it's what you start from to then work onto C++.

C is good to have under your belt, as there are many projects programmed in it (such as the Linux kernel and FreeBSD).

C for its minimalism and lack of dependencies.

C++ for its higher-level abstracted features.

C ++ sucks. It is too complex, and shitty. C is better for its simplicity and procedural-based conceptualization.

C is a lower level programming language than C++.
C++ provides you with object-oriented programming too!!

I See the C language being more used in reverse engineering binaries and mostly used to write 'Crack-Me's' for people to reverse engineer.
C is a language that's closer to the memory than C++, the lower the language to the memory the faster it runs.

C++ is used to do middle-level programming as it also supports the feature of high-level programming and used to develop system applications such as kernel and driver.

I know that some people will disagree but I prefer C++ to C because it has classes ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I prefer C, because you need to write a lot more instructions and this will help you learn the basics of programming sooner. But yes, most programmers love C++ because it is more object oriented.

C++ helped me at uni.
I was able to quickly master OOP
