Key differences between C++ and C

CharacteristicC++C
SyntaxC++ has a more complex syntax than C, with features such as classes, templates, and operator overloading.C has a simpler syntax than C++, with a focus on procedural programming.
ParadigmC++ supports both procedural and object-oriented programming paradigms.C supports only procedural programming paradigm.
TypingC++ supports both static and dynamic typing.C supports only static typing.
PerformanceC++ is generally faster than C due to its support for inline functions and templates.C is generally slower than C++ due to its lack of support for inline functions and templates.
Libraries and frameworksC++ has a larger number of libraries and frameworks available, including the Standard Template Library (STL) and Boost.C has a smaller number of libraries and frameworks available compared to C++.
Community and supportC++ has a large and active community with many resources available for learning and support.C also has a large community, but it is not as active as the C++ community.
Learning curveC++ has a steeper learning curve than C due to its more complex syntax and support for object-oriented programming.C has a relatively easy learning curve compared to C++ due to its simpler syntax and focus on procedural programming.
