THE ADVANTAGES OF OBJECT-ORIENTED PROGRAMMING USING C++ Object-oriented programming is a new way of approaching the job of programming. Programming over the years has evolved to accommodate the increased complexity of programs. (1) Structured, easy to understand programming has been around since the late 60's. These advances allowed programmers to write fairly complex programs relatively easy using such languages as C and Pascal. However, once a program reached a certain size it was just too complex …showed first 75 words of 666 total…

C++ Object oriented programming is the leading language for developers of large, complex applications.
