C++ Vs Java

C++ is platform dependent and mainly used for system programming, while Java is platform independent and used for application programming across various domains. C++ supports features like multiple inheritance, operator overloading, and pointers, whereas Java does not support these features but has built-in thread support and uses both a compiler and interpreter. Additionally, C++ allows call by value and reference, while Java only supports call by value.
