Why use namespaces in C++ projects?

  1. To define classes

  2. To control the scope of function and variable names

  3. To create singletons

  4. To implement templates

The correct answer is: To control the scope of function and variable names

Namespaces are used in C++ projects to group related code together and prevent naming conflicts. This means that option B, controlling the scope of function and variable names, is the most appropriate choice as it accurately describes the purpose of namespaces. Options A, C, and D do not provide a complete or accurate explanation for why namespaces are used in C++ projects. Defining classes, creating singletons, and implementing templates are all possible uses for namespaces, but they do not encompass the main purpose of namespaces which is to prevent naming conflicts and group related code. Therefore, option B is the most suitable answer.
