Do you Need To learn C Before you can Learn C++??





Im completly new to this, what do you even type the commads into?? Like a special program or something....





Please be easy on me here lol

Do you need to learn C before you can learn C++??
No, you don't need to learn C before you learn C++. It's not necessary. The two languages are very similiar (C++ is an Object Oriented version of C), so by learning one, you can easily learn the other. It doesn't matter which one you learn first or if you even learn both. I learned C++ without knowing C, and I had no problems. You need to download a C++ compiler. I use Bloodshed Dev-C++. You can find it here: http://www.bloodshed.net . It is a free complier for both C and C++.
Reply:Well, it's all up to u....





C and C++ are both Object-oriented Programming. So, if u would like to learn C to get to know OOP. It'll help when u learn C++ later.





I've learnt C++ without learning C before and I'm just doing well.





I hv no idea how does C language look like...
Reply:No , C and C++ are totaly different all factors , only the keywords are common , which can be learned .


but i would suggest you to go through C before C++ , inorder to learn what is structure languaage and Oops , IT will help to get more clear
Reply:Yes, you will need to learn C before C++, as C++ is a successor of C, in terms of added library and functions, as well as the main thing - classes. Even C++ has been referred to as 'C with Classes' . Nothing differentiate C and C++ more then the usage of Classes.





First of all, before you can learn the classes, you need to know the basic routine, procedure and flow of the structural programming basics. This has to be done with the C, where C does contain all but advanced contents in C++, so that you'll know most part in C++ before you start migrating to C++. The basic things covered in C in conjunction with C++ is the structures, logic flows and all type of arithmetic and logical algorithm syntaxes. It is just the same, but when you migrated to C++, you'll see the differences in terms of libraries, added functions, and, of course - the Class.








That's all you need to know.
Reply:yes..because c++ is like the older sister of c..you must need to know the c before the c++..
Reply:You don't need C before C++. Although a good language to start with before C++ would be Java, as it is a good beginners language to someone with no experience in this.


To start off with programming, you will probably find yourself using a basic text editor, probably notepad, or there is a free editor called notepad++ which specialises in programming. Compiling your programs (Allowing the computer to build it into a runnable format) will probably be done using a command prompt.


Running your programs, in Java is from the command prompt to begin with, I'm not too sure if that is the same for C++.


Microsoft offer Visual Studio for free which supports C++ coding.


Your best bet is to get a basic learner book for either of these languages and start working through the tutorials. Although this will set you back about £30 it is the best way to start learning programming. The book will also teach you a lot of theory about programming fundamentals with Object Orientated languages.





A quick search in google for any of the software I've mentioned should give you what you're looking for.





If you need any further advice, feel free to message me in yahoo and I'll see what I can do.
Reply:No, c++ is an exellect language to start with, you will be able to move to c, java, .net, asp, php, python, perl, ect.. from there.


good luck
