Graphic User Interface. One of the main uses is so that you can use a mouse to interact with your computer. The system lays out your screen as a grid and "knows" where the cursor is and where your icons are with respect to that grid. When you "click" your mouse button, the computer checks the cursor's location and compares it to the graphic objects(such as icons) and does whatever action it is programed to do. For example if you hover the cursor over the icon for internet Explorer and double-click(in Windows), the computer starts your IE browser.

Advantages of command driven interface?
A CLI interface can be implemented on far fewer resources. The CLI is far better for scripting and automated purposes, as well as issuing simple commands. Finally, a CLI interface is generally not subject to copyright, whereas GUIs are.
Is GUI better in Java or C plus plus?
Neither Java nor C++ have a GUI as such -- the GUI is not part of the language specification. But comparing the GUIs for an IDE intended for Java with that of an IDE intended for C++ is hardly going to tell you which is better, since they are intended for completely different purposes. You might as well compare the GUI provided with Adobe PaintShop Pro against the GUI for Microsoft Word for all the good it does.
Why do menu-driven interfaces continue to be popular in the modern computing age?
Menu-driven interfaces continue to be popular because they are easier to figure out and work with than command-line interfaces, with frequently cryptic and hard to recall commands and option selections.
How does one make a C GUI application?
A Graphical User Interface (GUI) is, first and foremost, an event-driven program that runs on top of a command-line-driven operating system. Designing a GUI completely from scratch is not something to be undertaken lightly. The easiest way to create a GUI is to use a framework. Visual C++ provides the Microsoft Foundation Classes (MFC) framework which allows you to build Windows applications that conform to the Windows GUI, whilst giving you the freedom to design your own elements that can interact with the GUI, even if they bear no resemblance to the standard GUI elements. However, you cannot alter the Windows GUI itself (globally, that is) as it is an intrinsic component of the operating system. Although you can manipulate GUI elements in real-time, this places a huge strain upon resources and will greatly impede the overall performance. Under Linux you have far greater freedom because the command-line-driven kernel is completely separate from the GUI, thus you are free to design your own. This allows you to completely alter the GUI in any way you see fit. Again, a GUI framework is the easiest way to begin as it provides all the basic elements of a GUI, including message queues, memory management and multi-tasking -- all you really have to do is design the visual aspects of each element.
