Key differences between C++ and Kotlin

CharacteristicC++Kotlin
SyntaxC++ has a complex syntax with a lot of rules and exceptions. It uses semicolons to end statements and curly braces to group statements into blocks. It also has a lot of operators and keywords.Kotlin has a more concise and intuitive syntax than C++. It uses semicolons optionally and has a more consistent use of curly braces. It also has a lot of modern language features like null safety and lambdas.
ParadigmC++ supports multiple paradigms including procedural, object-oriented, and generic programming.Kotlin is a multi-paradigm language that supports object-oriented, functional, and procedural programming.
TypingC++ is a statically typed language, which means that the type of a variable is determined at compile time.Kotlin is also a statically typed language, but it has type inference, which means that the type of a variable can be inferred by the compiler.
PerformanceC++ is known for its high performance and low-level memory manipulation capabilities.Kotlin is a high-level language and is not as performant as C++. However, it can still be used for performance-critical applications.
Libraries and frameworksC++ has a large number of libraries and frameworks available, especially for system-level programming and game development.Kotlin has a growing number of libraries and frameworks available, especially for Android development and web development.
Community and supportC++ has a large and active community with many resources available online.Kotlin has a growing community and is backed by Google, which provides resources and support.
Learning curveC++ has a steep learning curve due to its complex syntax and low-level memory manipulation capabilities.Kotlin has a relatively low learning curve, especially for developers familiar with Java or other object-oriented languages.
