What are the differences between C and C++ ?


Many people believe that C++ is a superset of C, and even few books happen to say so. But C++ is different from C in many ways, and it is in fact an incomplete superset of C. There are certain features in C which are not in C++ and in some cases, valid code constructs in C may to fail to compile in C++, and in few other instances, the C code is executes differently when compiled with C++ compiler. Here is an excellent article by By David R. Tribble describing all the incompatible and differences between C and C++. Its very helpful article for those who code in both C and C++ languages.
