Question

I know cpp is upgraded version of c.
But for a newbie is it ok to start with cpp ?

Answer 1

If you want to learn C++, learn C++.
If you want to learn C, learn C.

Don't learn C just so that you can have a 'better' understanding of C++ later, you're just wasting time then.
They are entirely different languages at this point. Not just an 'upgraded version of C'.

If you are planning to do low level stuff, like operating systems, drivers, embedded systems I would recommend C.
Otherwise I recommend C++.
It just depends on what you want.

Most beginner tutorials in C++ focus on the basic concepts like pointers and arrays which are also used in C.
So by learning C++ you also gain experience in C at the same time.

Answer 2

Maybe start with C first.

Answer 3

its ok, there are a few difference in syntax but mostly C code works on C++. but not the other way around

Answer 5

C++ is great for apps and games.
Hacking probably too, but I think python is the go-to language for most hackers.
