How does the transition to C++ benefit existing C programmers in terms of code?

  1. C code becomes immediately obsolete

  2. Existing C code is still viable in C++

  3. C code execution becomes slower

  4. C code must be rewritten for C++

The correct answer is: Existing C code is still viable in C++

The transition to C++ benefits existing C programmers because their existing C code is still usable in C++, without having to be rewritten completely. Therefore, the transition does not make the C code obsolete, nor does it slow down the execution of the code. Option A is incorrect because the transition does not make C code immediately obsolete, it is still possible to work with it in C++. Option C is incorrect because the code execution does not become slower, but rather the transition allows for certain features in C++ that could optimize the code. Option D is incorrect because C code does not have to be rewritten completely for C++, making that option too extreme.
