difference between plain C and a full object oriented programming

[mihai]

I wander what is the penalty of speend for using object oriented
programming (C++) against the play C.

Have a nice day,
Mihai

No, the penalty of speend is always caused by the programmer. BTW, OO
programming is much harder than procedural programming.

None.
Object oriented programming
is as good an idea in C as it is in C++.
C++ just makes it easier and more reliable
because it is an object oriented programming language --
it includes direct support for object oriented programming:
1.) encapsulation (actually, data hiding),
2.) inheritance and
3.) run-time polymorphism.

Of course, new C++ programmers create problems for themselves
when they try to use the new language features
in inappropriate situations.
As a rule, you should avoid doing anything in C++
that you wouldn't do in C.

None whatsoever.

Both C and C++ can support OO programming. Consider this. Lets suppose you
have a bunch of classes or types that are related in some way. Who will be
faster? The non-OO language programmer that has to create a container for
each single type or the OO programmer that can use one container to store
all the types, including those derived types not yet created?
