What you need to know about C/C++

C and C++ are powerful and versatile programming languages used for developing applications ranging from embedded systems to complex software. C, created in the 1970s, is a low-level language ideal for system programming and optimized performance. It forms the foundation of many operating systems, like Linux, and offers direct memory control. C++, an extension of C, adds object-oriented features like classes and inheritance while maintaining C's power and efficiency. It is used to develop graphical software, game engines, scientific applications, and more. Both languages are widely adopted in the industry for their speed, flexibility, and ability to handle complex systems. They are also known for their extensive ecosystem of libraries and compatibility with multiple platforms.
