What is the language of compiler of c plus plus?

Answer 1

C++ is a general purpose, cross platform, object-oriented programming language that compiles to native machine code. Although it supports OOP, it does not rely on it. You can mix C++ code with C-style code and even Assembly Language routines.

Answer 2

The compiler is a machine code program that was originally written in C. Nowadays, new C++ compilers are written using C++ itself, using the previous compiler to compile the next. Each platform and IDE has its own specific compiler and all are developed separately. The only criteria is that they conform to the C++ standard.

Answer 3

Static typing simply means the C++ compiler is capable of weeding out the majority of type errors (incorrect casts, calling non-existent member methods or functions, and so on), which eliminates a lot of problems that would otherwise need to be handled at runtime (dynamic typing), which is inefficient and prone to error. However, it should be noted that C++ does not enforce static typing strictly. Pointer casts and unions, for instance, can easily violate the static typing. At best, C++ can be described as pseudo statically typed as much of the responsibility lies with the programmer to ensure he/she uses static typing as much as possible, and to avoid using dynamic casts and unions unless it is absolutely necessary. The bottom line is that the more errors you can eliminate at compile time, the fewer problems you will encounter at runtime, and therefore the fewer runtime checks you need to make. The ideal is to not have to perform any runtime checks at all, thus ensuring your code is as efficient as possible. Thus you need only worry about the program's logic, not introduce silly little mistakes that the compiler could have easily highlighted for you.

Answer 4

There are no separate typed and untyped languages in C++, it is all the one typed language. Typed simply means that every variable and constant must have a built-in type (int, char, float, etc, or a pointer to a type) or a user-defined type (a typedef or class). Where the type is undetermined, a void pointer may be used (which is itself a type), but this requires expensive runtime type information to determine the actual type being pointed at. Typed languages such as C++ are more efficient than untyped languages, but untyped languages are much easier to program.
