Why C++?

• Programming language: Why C++? – C++: general purpose programming language with a b

ias towards systems programming that is [from Bjarne Stroustrup’s homepage]

• A better C• Supports data abstraction, object-oriented programming, and

generic programming

– C++ has • Many users• Many applications

– Others: Smalltalk, Java, …

• Preparing for advanced courses– Application software design– Software engineering & project management
