C or C++ for programming biped robots/ robot on wheels?

Question

I am completely new in robotics and would like to know which of these is better to learn, C or C++?

Answer 1

C compiles to a smaller file and faster code, but C++ is better because it's object-oriented, which can help organize code (which is better for larger projects).

Basically, C is faster to learn, but requires many more lines of code since it is lower level.

C++ takes longer to learn (unless you are already familiar with object-oriented concepts), but makes maintaining the code easier.

The two are actually pretty similar, only C++ has more to it.  So if you learn C first, it will make easing into C++ easier.  But if you learn C++ first (takes longer), then the time to learn C would be trivial.

Another thing you might consider is what kind of, if any, API (Application Programming Interface) is available for your robot and the language it uses.

Answer 2

Bette learn artificial intelligence programming language like lisp ,etc .
