Do I need to learn C before starting to learn C++??

Question

Confused

Answer 1

You're not obliged to learn C programming language before C++ but it's important to first learn C before C++ according to my knowledge and the tougher syntax of C compared C++. Again, if you want to know both C and C++ excellently, then start with C programming language

Answer 2

Anonymous No you do not need to learn C before starting C++

Answer 3

You don't need to learn c before learning any language..but remember one thing..a person who has command on C, also has 70-75% command on other languages!!! C is the mother Language

Answer 4

Well, when I started learning C++, I didn't know there is something called C. 😁

Answer 5

Nearly all languages originated from C and that is why there are similarites within languages

Answer 6

Anonymous I really support that you should start with as you have said!! Most powerful languages now are having borrowed features or idea in C! Or simply made from C Python, Java, and even PHP!!
C is very good for Hacking too as it is a transition between High level and low level language

Answer 8

nope

Answer 9

Mohamed thanks for the answer,
I think I will learn C as the hacking is based on C there will be a reason. As other said that they are very similar to each other, it means that I will not have problem to study the new ones which would be easier.

Answer 10

C++ is widely use and is probably the better choice considering that its an "upgrade" of C

Answer 11

actually I am going to study hacking that is based on C language, so that is why im confused if I should still use C++ as they are similar or is better studying C.

Answer 12

Apple I got informed from the internet about C, is better that you know it because is the mother of nowadays code languages, I know it is hard to learn it but if you like coding you would start from its origins.
