Python and C are different programming languages. Python is easier to learn and use, especially for beginners, because it reads almost like plain English. C is a bit harder because it requires more attention to details.
Comparison between Python and C
Python requires only one easy-to-read line to print something:
print("Hello, World!")C requires you to manage more setup, like including libraries (#include ) and defining a main function:
#include
int main() {
printf("Hello, World!\n");
return 0;
} Key Differences:
Syntax Simplicity: Python is simpler and shorter; C needs more boilerplate code.
Speed: C programs generally run faster because they are closer to "machine language."
Use Cases: Python is often used for web development, automation, AI, and data science. C is used where performance matters a lot, like in operating systems, embedded systems, and hardware drivers.
Memory Management: In C, you must manage memory manually. In Python, memory management is automatic (through garbage collection).
