In this Post you know the Difference Between C and Python and also know about the Introduction of C and Python.
What is C Introduction
C Introduction:- C is a middle-level language. It was developed by Dennis Ritchie. It has the simplicity of a high-level language as well as the power of a low-level language. This aspect of C makes it suitable for writing both application programs and system software. Thus it is an excellent, efficient, and general-purpose language for most the applications such as mathematical, scientific, business and system software applications.
What is Python Introduction
Python Introduction:- Python is a powerful and general programming language, developed by Guido Van Rossum(1989). Guido Van Rossum developed a python language at Mathematical Research Institute called ‘CWI’.
Most people are calling python a scripting language because the way of developing python applications and execution of python applications is similar to that of scripting languages.
Difference between C and Python
C Python
- C is a general-purpose, procedural programming language. It does not contain features like classes, objects, inheritance, polymorphism.
- C programs are faster
- A semi-colon is used to end the statement in C, while commas are used to separate expressions.
- We need to declare variables and arrays prior to the program.
- C has an extra do while loop in loops which is not present in python.
- C has a switch statement, and also has the concepts of pointers.
- We use calloc(), malloc(), etc to allocate memory dynamically.
- C supports multidimensional arrays.
- The variables in the for loop don’t increment automatically.
- It is known as compiled language.
- As C is, compiled language hence, its code is compiled directly to machine code which is executed directly by the CPU.
- In C limited number of functions are available.
- C is statically typed.
- C programs are saved with .c extension.
- C language is complex than python.
- Basic if statement in C is represented as:
if()
- Python is an object-oriented programming language. It has all the features like classes, objects, inheritance, polymorphism.
- Python programs are slower as compared to C.
- A new line is used to terminate the python program and a semi-colon is used as an expression separator.
- We do not need to declare variables.
- Python has a for else loop in loops which is not in C.
- Python does not have the concepts of pointers and it also lacks the switch statement.
- Memory allocation is done automatically by python virtual machines.
- Python doesn’t support multidimensional arrays. To use them we need to import.
- The variables in the for loop increment automatically.
- It is interpreted language.
- In Python, code is first compiled to a byte code, and then it is interpreted by a large C program.
- There are a large of built-in functions available.
- Python is dynamically typed.
- Python programs are saved with the .py extension.
- Python is much easier than C.
- Basic if statement in python is represented as
if:
