Difference between C++ and Java

Difference between C++ and Java

C++ Language :- C++ Programming language is the superset of the C Language. C++ language was developed in the early 1980s. It was developed by Bjarne Stroustrup in Bell Laboratories. C++ language was developed to overcome from the flaws that will occur in the C language. No doubt, C language was the big invention on that time but after the time the founders found some flaws in that language. So they developed the new language named C++ language that will going to be very popular after the development due to some new features and inclusion of object oriented programming. Object oriented programming is that type of programming which deals with the real life implications. Instead of this C++ language also supports C language we can run most of the concept of C language in C++ language but we cannot use the C++ language concept in C language. Because C language is the subset of the C++ language. For using of object oriented programming C++ is also called the object oriented programming language[OOP]. C++ and java is considered to be the fastest language and giving full control over the memory allocation and garbage collection. But there is lot of difference between c++ and java.

Java Language :- Java language is one of the best and pure object oriented programming language. Java language is first developed by the James Gosling in the early 1990s. The main reason for developing the java Language is that C++ taking more memory. So reducing the memory management java language is developed. The first name of java language is “oak” because james gosling and his team want to give some unique name to the new language but later oak was renamed as  java in 1995 because oak was already a trademark of the oak technologies. Java language is made on the basis of certain principles like robust, platform independent, portable etc. java was also called the pure object oriented programming language because there is no header file in java and it starts with creating classes. Java language uses java virtual machine[JVM] for the compilation process. But the main difference between c++ and java is that C++ is not purely object oriented programming language but the java is pure object oriented programming language. Instead of this there are more difference between c++ and java. The difference between C++ and java is discussed below :

Difference between C++ and Java

Above is the difference between C++ and java. From the above points you can easily differentiate the C++ language with the java language. But the top programming languages used is python , java and javascript.
