Considering c++ is one of the most widely-used languages out there, I would question this.
- nostrademons 8y agoC++ has a bunch of new semantics on top of C - classes, access modifiers, virtual functions, constructors/destructors, operator overloading, different casting rules, exceptions, namespaces, templates, etc. People who know both of them well consider them very distinct languages, because the programming style you use in a C++ program is very different from a C program.
