what is the main difference between c and c++?
Answer Posted / adil siddiqui
1.C is a structured programming language while C++ is an
object programming language .
2.c++ support operator overloading but c doesn't support
operator overloading
3. C employs top down approach, but c++ employes buttom up
approach.
4.C give emphasis in algorithims and functions, but C++
give emphasis on the data and objects.
5.In C we are using #include<stdio.h> as header file, but
in C++ we are using #include<iostream.h> as header file.
6.In C memory allocation is done with malloc statement
whereas in C++ it is done through new keyword.Also memory
is deallocated in C using free statement while in C++
deallocation takes place through delete.
7. *Inline functions are not available in C.
8.The I/O functions are entirely different in C and C++
(ex: printf( ), scanf( ) etc. are part of the C language).
9.Structures in C cannot have functions
10.You cannot overload a function in C (i.e. you cannot
have 2 functions with the same name in C).
11.C does not have reference variables (in C++
referencevariables are used in functions).
12.In other worlds C is used more with hardware while C++
is used more with software, mainly because of more
abstraction and features in C++.
13.You have to include the struct keyword before the name
of the struct type to declare a struct: In C++, you could
do this, and have a new instance of a_struct called
struct_instance. In C, however, we have to include the
struct keyword when declaring struct_instance
14.C++ has a much larger library than C, and some things
may be automatically linked in by C++ when they are not
with C.

Where You Can Use Interface in your Project
Write a C++ program without using any loop (if, for, while etc) to print prime numbers from 1 to 100 and 100 to 1 (Do not use 200 print statements!!!)
INSTANCE FIELDS DECLARED private ARE ACCESSIBLE BY THE METHODS ONLY.CAN WE CHANGE THE private FIELD OF AN OBJECT IN A METHOD OF SOME OTHER OBJECT OF THE SAME CLASS?

What is an interface in oop?
Write a program to compute for numeric grades for a course. The course records are in a file that will serve as the input file. The input file is in exactly the following format: Each line contains a student's first name, then one space, then ten quiz scores all on one line. The quiz scores are in whole number and are separated by one space. Your program will take it input from this file and sends it output to a second file. The data in the output file will be exactly the same as the data in the input file except that there will be one additional number (of type double) at the end of each line. This number will be the average of the student's ten quiz scores. Use at least one function that has file streams as all or some of its arguments.
