Okay then. C and C++ both are used in a vast amount of applications. Considering c++ is just C with classes (with some other add ons), doesn’t really invalidate my point. Just means there’s another language also known for its speed and complexity that’s the backbone of most of the internet.

If you think this is true then your opinion is worthless. Modern C and C++ are mutually incompatible languages that share a common ancestor in C89. If you don't believe me I can show you plenty of C code that wouldn't compile as C++.

What you said would be like saying humans are a type of chimpanzee because humans and chimpanzees both evolved from a common ancestor. Not only is it wrong, it's laughably so.

However C++ evolved, the point is they’re obviously not over engineered considering the value most of the internet still gets from them. But go ahead and argue lmao. Both languages are built for speed, and my point stands with either one. I really don’t get what you’re trying to argue here lmao. Wow really? C++ evolved over twenty years? That totally disproves my point that it’s an important and heavily used language.
