C Vs C++

C is a procedural programming language that uses functions as building blocks and focuses on steps to solve problems. Data is not secured and variables must be defined at the beginning of functions. C follows a top-down approach, uses scanf() and printf() for input/output, and supports built-in data types. Programs are divided into modules and functions. C++ is an object-oriented language that uses objects as building blocks and focuses on objects rather than procedures. Data is hidden and variables can be defined anywhere in functions. C++ follows a bottom-up approach, uses cin>> and cout<< for input/output, and supports built-in and user-defined data types. Programs are divided into classes
