COMP 345 - Advanced Program Design with C++ 16 Introduction to C++: Principles and

COMP 345 - Advanced Program Design with C++ 16 Introduction to C++: Principles and goals • Bjarne Stroustrup describes some principles that he used for the design of C++: • Statically typed, general-purpose language, as efficient and portable as C • Direct and comprehensive support for multiple programming styles (procedural • • • programming, data abstraction, object-oriented programming, and generic programming) Give the programmer choice, even if this makes it possible for the programmer to choose incorrectly As compatible with C as possible, providing a smooth transition from C Avoid features that are platform specific or not general purpose Not incur overhead for features that are not used Function without a sophisticated programming environment • Goals: • Augment C with the notion of classes and inheritance • Keep the same performance as C • Keep same applicability as C Concordia University Department of Computer Science and Software Engineering Joey Paquet, 2007 -2014

COMP 345 - Advanced Program Design with C++ 17 Introduction to C++: History, versions

COMP 345 - Advanced Program Design with C++ 17 Introduction to C++: History, versions • Stroustrup began to work on C++ in 1979. • The idea of creating a new language originated from Stroustrup's experience in programming for his Ph. D. thesis. • Stroustrup found that Simula had features that were very helpful for large software development, but the language was too slow for practical use. • Remembering his Ph. D. experience, Stroustrup set out to enhance the C language with Simula-like features. • C was chosen because it was general-purpose, fast, portable and widely used. • Besides C and Simula, some other languages that inspired him were ALGOL 68, Ada, CLU and ML.
