why C++ is a powerful programming language than C?

[Luz]

I am beginner in programming language.Lot of people say that C++ is a powerful programming language than C.I don't know why makes C++ more powerful than C? Which features C++ have?Please any one who have knowledge about C++ share with me.I will be grateful for your help.

C++ is a free-form,compiled,multi-paradigm,statically typed, general-purpose programming language.C++ is widely used in the software industry, and remains one of the most popular languages ever created. Some of its application domains include application software,systems software, device drivers, embedded software, high-performance server and client applications, and entertainment software such as video games.

The C++ Language features:
*Operators and operator overloading:C++ provides more than 30 operators, covering basic arithmetic, bit manipulation, indirection, comparisons, logical operations and others.

*Templates:C++ templates enable generic programming.

*Objects:C++ introduces object-oriented (OO) features to C. It offers classes, which provide the four features commonly present in OO (and some non-OO) languages: abstraction, encapsulation, inheritance, and polymorphism.

*Encapsulation:Encapsulation is the hiding of information in order to ensure that data structures and operators are used as intended and to make the usage model more obvious to the developer.

*Inheritance:Inheritance allows one data type to acquire properties of other data types. Inheritance from a base class may be declared as public, protected, or private.

*Polymorphism: Polymorphism enables one common interface for many implementations, and for objects to act differently under different circumstances.C++ supports several kinds of static (compile-time) and dynamic (run-time) polymorphisms.

What makes C++ is more powerful is it's number of features like as follows:

*You can use abstract classes as interfaces
*You can make class hierarchies for object-oriented programming.
*You can use C++ templates as the basis for type-safe .
*We can use exceptions for error handling
*You can use namespaces for avoid confusion.
*The C subset of C++ for C compatibility and system-level work
*It's standard containers and algorithms
*It's easy to use standard strings, I/O streams, and numerics

Due to it's very strong features C++ is more powerful than C.It supports following features:


1. Parameter Passing:There are two way in C++ to exchange parameter one is pass-by-value and other is pass-by-reference. These method are extensively use in program.

2Variables:Variable is attribute where similar type of things are collected.

3.Pointers: Pointer is variable has exactly the same set of attributes as any other C++ variable.It is some time difficult to learn.

4.Classes and Objects:In C++ class encapsulates a set of values and a set of operations. The values may be member variables of the class and the operations by the member functions of the class. The instances of a class are also called as objects.

5.Inheritance:In C++ it may happened that one class may be derived from another class. The derived class inherits all the member variables and the member functions of the base class or super classe.
