what is the use of Namespace in c++...

Answer / ramprasad g

The use of namespace is to avoid clash during naming of
variable,classes etc.

Suppose a company wants to release its version of a
function, it can create a separate namespace and then create a
function within that namespace.Another company can create a
function of same name, as long as it is in different
namespace.And the third company can use both the functions
in the same program by using resolving the namespace.

Answer / snigdhadeb ash.

Namespace is a new concept introduced by the ANSI C++
standards committee. This defines a scops for the
identifiers that are used in a program. For using the
identifiers defined in the namespace scope we must include
the using directive,like
using namespace std;
Here , std is the namespace where ANSI C++ standard class
libraries are defined. All ANSI C++ programs must include
this directive. This will bring all the identifiers defined
in std to the current global scope. using and namespace are
the new keywords of C++.

Answer / achal ubbott

Template feature came to c++ quite later from its birth. It
basically helps some big coders.
Now if u buy 2 libraries from market and both of these
define a class Ethernet; Then if u use both of them in your
code the copiler will give some redeclaration of class
errors. So this Namespace feature helps the coder to
differentiate among the two.
