What is proposed as a first project when transitioning to C++ from C?

  1. A complex system design

  2. A mission-critical application

  3. A low-risk project

  4. A large-scale database

The correct answer is: A low-risk project

When transitioning from C to C++, it is recommended to begin with a low-risk project. This allows for a smoother transition into the new language and decreases the possibility of making critical errors in a more complex project. A complex system design or a mission-critical application could be overwhelming for a beginner in C++ and may lead to frustration or mistakes. Similarly, a large-scale database project may involve more advanced concepts and techniques that a new C++ learner may not be familiar with. Starting with a low-risk project gives the opportunity to gain a solid foundation in C++ before taking on more challenging projects.
