The complexity of C++ is mostly related to its heritage, because it evolved from the C procedural language. However, the simplicity is realised when you take advantage of the object-oriented programming principals. by combining both, you get the best of both worlds: efficient, robust code.
No they are more of antonyms (mean the opposite).
Complexity is a measure of how long an algorithm is expected to take and/or how much space is required to complete the task. It is not specific to C++ -- the language is immaterial -- it only applies to algorithms. Complexity is often expressed in big O notation, where O(1) is constant time (the best that can be expected of any algorithm).
Joseph P. Zbilut has written: 'Simplicity' -- subject(s): Science, Simplicity (Philosophy), Methodology, Philosophy, Complexity (Philosophy)
That idea is associated with Swiss psychologist Jean Piaget's theory of cognitive development. Piaget believed that children progress through stages of cognitive development, with thinking skills moving from simplicity to complexity as they grow older.

There is no definitive answer to a question such as this - depending on the simplicity or complexity of the estate being probated, it takes as long as it takes.
b+b+b+c+c+c+c =3b+4c
c + c + 2c + c + c = 6c
b + b + b + c + c + c + c = 3b + 4c
The choice of language is one of availability of a compiler, a library, an environment, and what the existing code is written in. Often, the existing code is written in C because that was available before C++ and was more defined. Also, C++ introduces complexity, although it has great value, and C might be more appropriate for certain applications, such as operating system internal code.
Although C++ evolved from C, this only makes it possible to convert from C to C++ with relatively minor modification. Converting from C++ to C is rarely so simple. Converting from Microsoft Visual C++ to Borland C++ Builder is hard enough, without the added complexity of replacing all the OOP-based code with C-compliant code. It would actually be simpler to convert the disassembled C++ to procedural C.
