The language gained its popularity because it included the features of traditional C with object-oriented programming capability. It is the application form of C, which includes system and application software and embedded software along with device drivers. High performance applications can also be obtained on the server as well as on the client side. At a higher level of abstraction, you can work and use the skills of C++, which has established superior quality compilers and other development tools for an extensive array of systems.

A candidate's academic qualification to be a C++ programmer is biased to certain extent. If the person is a graduate in either of the following – BE, B. Tech, M.
