What to choose: C or C++?

Question

Programming languages

After studying Python, I was very interested in the topic of system programming and robot programming (I used to work with robots). After digging around on the Internet, C will be the best language for me, but C ++ may also be suitable for these purposes. Now questions.
1. Which of these PLs is more promising?
2. Will C++ work for systems programming and robots?
3. Are there other languages ​​suitable for this purpose?
4. What else can C do besides this?
5. What literature can you recommend for these languages ​​(in which you studied)?

Answer 1

Yes, it seems that even under the pop arduino you can write on the pluses. So do not fool around and learn them right away. Although they are closely related.
On points:
1. Pros
2. Yes
3. Yes, Java for example. And in general, there are many for robots - even LOGO was.
4. Everything is a Turing-complete language. The rest depends on the libraries and the runtime.
5. Search the toaster - the question has been asked many times

Answer 2

After learning Python

Are you sure you already learned Python? Or flipped through its basics?
You need to choose between C and C ++ when you can already write at least something.
Write simple tic-tac-toe in C and C++, and then decide what you like best.

Answer 3

Take C++. Because you can write on it both in C and in C ++, but you can’t do it in C.
C++ simply covers more situations, i.e. more powerful.
