When to choose C over C++?
- by aaa
Hi.
I have become a fond of C++ thanks to this website.
Before, I programmed exclusively in C/Fortran, thinking that C++ was too slow (not anymore).
Is there a reason to write new project purely in C?
this is besides obvious things like low-level kernel/system components.
What about intermediate things, like communication libraries, for example MPI?
Is C still more portable than C++? I have messed with pretty exotic systems, like Cray, but have yet to see non-embedded system without C++.
thanks
