C++ is very good at building .NET applications or other similar tasks. However, if you were building an android app it would be better to use JAVA or kotlin as they are the official languages and thus have the most support. If you want to build a website you need HTML and CSS., and would normally use Javascript. As this is what the browser is designed to understand. If you want to program a raspberry pie, you will need python. Additionally to all this. You havr to consider the different paradigm . C++ wont let you do functional or procedural programing. This may mean that your app could be smaller and simpler writen in another language depending on the paradigm of the other language. So, its not just about which language looks beat. Its also about how it will run your specific code. Finally its worth considering expandability. Java runs on different operating system due to its JVM. So for a multi-platform application one night consider that an advantage over C++.

@josh. You are absolutely right. It actually depends on what you want to do. Web-development, android-development, and others.

This is not a meaningful question. Programing languages have thier own strengths and weaknesses.

from what I have been told is that c++ is data specific while python is syntax specific and in addition to it being faster as someone pointed doesn't that make it a better option

@Josh, C++ is a multi-paradigm language. It supports functional, procedural, and OOP.

The C-Family languages (excluding Obj-C, and maybe C#) are considered to be the most powerful general purpose languages by many. There is simply nothing that can beat their speed as of now, and it has been that way for a while.

I understand, however as someone who has developed in C#, I find very little difference between the capability of C# and C++.
