C++ is designed to provide efficient programs, it has the philosophy of “zero overhead” that effectively means that all extras are removed, this means that there is less support for a programmer with error messages etc and limited functionality in libraries, but the code will run fast and effectively. This means C++ is really only used in situations where efficiency is crucial, this is why C++ is commonly used in games as well for example, where every ounce of hardware is to be utilized efficiently UR - https://uowd.box.com/s/mskb7tbhnm3pugaj7r20iupspc28xd9n ER -
