    1. Overview of C++ Programming<\/strong><\/h4>\n

    C++ is an object oriented programming language developed by a computer scientist called Bjarne Stroustrup. It was introduced in the 1970s. You can use C++ to build different types of applications. This includes desktop application, games etc.<\/p>\n

    C++ is recommended for persons who have some prio programming knowledge. Or maybe you study computer science. But you can also learn C++ as a beginner is you can put the right effort.<\/p>\n

    C++ programming Language is kind of a a superset of the C programming language. So this means that with knowledge of C++, you would not need to learn C. Again, C++ is statically typed, which means that type checking is performed at run time.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    2. C++ as an Object Oriented Programming Language<\/strong><\/h4>\n

    C++ is one of the first languages to support object oriented programming. This means that the programs is modeled according to objects in the real world. More formally, object-oriented programming languages supports the following features:<\/p>\n
