Detailed Differences between C and C++

Detailed Differences between C and C++ are:
CC++
C was developed by Dennis Ritchie between the year 1969 and 1973 at AT&T Bell Labs.C++ was developed by Bjarne Stroustrup in 1979.
C does no support polymorphism, encapsulation, and inheritance which means that C does not support object oriented programming.C++ supports polymorphism, encapsulation, and inheritance because it is an object oriented programming language.
C is a subset of C++.C++ is a superset of C. C codes can be run by C++ but C cannot run the C++ codes.
C contains 32 keywords.C++ contains 52 keywords.
For the development of code, C supports procedural programming.C++ is known as hybrid language because C++ supports both procedural and object oriented programming paradigms.
Data and functions are separated in C because it is a procedural programming language.Data and functions are encapsulated together in form of an object in C++.
C does not support information hiding.Data is hidden by the Encapsulation to ensure that data structures and operators are used as intended.
Built-in data types is supported in C.Built-in & user-defined data types is supported in C++.
C is a function driven language because C is a procedural programming language.C++ is an object driven language because it is an object oriented programming.
Function and operator overloading is not supported in C.Function and operator overloading is supported by C++.
C is a function-driven language.C++ is an object-driven language
Functions in C are not defined inside structures.Functions can be used inside a structure in C++.
Namespace features are not present inside the C.NAMESPACE is used by C++, which avoid name collisions.
Header file used by C is stdio.h.Header file used by C++ is iostream.h.
Reference variables are not supported by C.Reference variables are supported by C++.
Virtual and friend functions are not supported by C.Virtual and friend functions are supported by C++.
C does not support inheritance.C++ supports inheritance.
Instead of focusing on data, C focuses on method or process.C++ focuses on data instead of focusing on method or procedure.
C provides malloc() and calloc()functions for dynamic memory allocation, and free() for memory de-allocation.C++ provides new operator for memory allocation and delete operator for memory de-allocation.
Direct support for exception handling is not supported by C.Exception handling is supported by C++.
scanf and printf functions are used for input/output in C.cin and cout are used for input/output in C++.
