Well thats what im talking about... they can do about the same things but the difference is in the time you put in and how safe it is. C++ provides much more standart librarys and string library etc.. with C you can create some string library yourselfe using char arrays but it wont be as safe as C++ standart librarys, IF you are not some pro, and i assume hes not a pro since hes asking what language to chose.. In C++ you will make codes safer and faster usign the standart librarys, like map, vectors, etc.. in the same time using C librarys too if theyr needed..
There are even implamented safer castings in C++ to replace the C style ones (dynamic_cast, reinterpret_cast, static_cast and const_cast), never had any problems with C style casting tho..
Thats what i think.
