What is the primary goal of C++?

  1. To create a more efficient version of Java

  2. To allow procedural programming only

  3. To improve productivity

  4. To enforce object-oriented programming

The correct answer is: To improve productivity

C++ was created with the primary focus to improve productivity by allowing programmers to do more with less code. It also allows for both procedural and object-oriented programming, making it a versatile language. A and B are incorrect as C++ is not solely focused on being more efficient than Java or only allowing procedural programming. D is also incorrect as C++ does not enforce object-oriented programming, but rather provides the option for it. C++ also offers low-level memory manipulation, which also contributes to its productivity.
