Changes

C++ can be considered a compromise between Assembly and Java, despite C++ being older than (and is an antecedent to) Java. C++ compilers are ubiquitous, hence compiling C++ source code is a readily-available task. C++ is also one of the fastest 3rd generation languages. Also, most programmers already have a working knowledge of C++. However, to some programmers, writing in C++ is still quite complicated in coding. Also, opposed to Java, C++ code has to be explicitly complied before being able to work, lengthening turnaround times.
