History of C++
- Built of C
- Added object oriented programming C
- Other library functions also added
Origins of C
- Considered the beginning of the modern age of programming
- Serves as a model for all new languages
- Invented by Dennis Ritchie
- Built off "B" which was built of "BCPL"
- It was the first language actually built by programmers for programmers
- Previous languages were designed by academics or people in large institutions
- C++ was more thought out and streamlined
Advantages of C
- Structured programming
- Designed to avoid " spaghetti code"
- Streamlined and powerful
Origins of C++
- Programmers were building more complex programs, so they needed better ways to organize and handle data.
- Programmers wanted the power of OOP (Object Oriented Programming) in C.
- C++ was created by Bjarne Strostrup in 1979
Evolution of C++
- Three revisions of the language, each trying to achieve standardization.
- Addition of the "Standard Template Library", a huge collection of functions, compliated standardization.
Java and C#
- Java created by Sun
- C# created by microsoft
- Both built off of C++
- Main difference between the three is the way they compile code
- C++ creates highly efficent machine code for only one architecture and OS
- Java and C# can create intermideate code which can be run on most OS's and architectures.
