8.features of C++ Programming

C++ is an object-oriented, compiled programming language that supports low-level manipulation and offers a rich standard library, including the Standard Template Library (STL). It is known for its high performance, multi-paradigm capabilities, and features like function and operator overloading, strong type checking, and exception handling. C++ code is platform-independent with compiler support, making it versatile for various applications.

Here are the key features of C++ programming:

1. Object-Oriented Programming (OOP)

Classes and Objects: Enables data and functions to be bundled together.

Encapsulation: Hides internal object details to protect data.

Inheritance: Enables new classes to inherit properties of existing ones.

Polymorphism: Allows functions or methods to behave differently based on input.

Abstraction: Focuses on essential details, hiding complexity.

2. Compiled Language

C++ is compiled into machine code for faster execution and better performance.

3. Low-Level Manipulation

Supports pointer arithmetic and direct memory access, making it suitable for system-level programming.
4. Rich Standard Library

Includes the Standard Template Library (STL) which provides common data structures (like vectors, lists,
stacks) and algorithms.

5. Multi-paradigm Language

Supports procedural, object-oriented, and even generic programming via templates.

6. Speed and Performance

Known for high performance, often used in systems software, game engines, and real-time applications.

7. Platform Independent (with Compiler Support)

C++ code can be run on multiple platforms with minimal changes, depending on compiler support.

8. Function Overloading and Operator Overloading

Enhances code readability and usability by allowing the same function name or operator to work with
different data types.
9. Strong Type Checking

Ensures variables are used with compatible types, helping prevent errors.

10. Exception Handling

Provides robust error handling using try, catch, and throw.
