Table Comparing C

This table compares key features of C, C++ and Java programming languages. C uses procedural programming and has manual memory management using pointers. C++ adds object-oriented programming, generics and references but still allows pointers. Java uses object-oriented programming, automatic memory management with a garbage collector, generics and disallows pointers in favor of object references.
