the pros & cons of C++

Although C++ was initially standardized in 1998, it is still a very popular multi-purpose programming language that runs on Windows, Linux, Unix, and Mac. Let’s check out the advantages and disadvantages of C++.

Pros

  • Portability: code written in C++ runs equally on all supported platforms.
  • Mid-level language: can be treated as a low-level programming language for kernels or drivers and a high-level programming language for games or applications.
  • Object-oriented: supports complex features like abstraction, polymorphism, inheritance, and encapsulation.
  • High speed: there’s no need to install a runtime to run the program, so the code is more powerful and runs faster.
  • Scalability: C++ is very scalable due to its direct memory management capabilities and low-level machine functions.

Cons

  • Low flexibility: the language is very strict with syntax, making it difficult to create readable code.
  • Complexity: C++ is not suitable for building platform-dependent apps.
  • Security issues: while there are many safety features, there are still multiple problems due to global variables, pointers, and friend functions.
  • No garbage collector: redundant and unnecessary data isn’t filtered out automatically, increasing memory.
  • Pointers: these are complex tools that increase memory, and a single error may crash the system.

When to use C++ and when not

There are many use cases with C++ that demonstrate this language’s popularity.

Here are some examples of where it is used:

  • Operating systems like Windows and MAC OS X;
  • GUI-based applications like Photoshop and Illustrator;
  • Web browsers like Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox;
  • Database management software like MySQL;
  • Libraries like Tensorflow;
  • Games, embedded systems, banking apps, compilers, cloud systems, advanced computation, and many other areas.

C++ gives the developer nearly full control of the processes. It’s very useful when you’re concerned about speed and memory usage. However, that isn’t always the case, so using Python might be cheaper and more effective, even though it is a slower language.
