You can do all what you want with C++. From an OS to a 3D FPS or even a web application. Actually you have more freedom with C++ or any other true compiled language than the modern one like Java, C#, Python, PHP or whatever.

The drawback if that coding in C++ takes a lot more time than with the modern languages and is harder to code with. Beside those drawbacks, which pushed new solutions, C & C++ are still the most used languages out there.

Is that a challenge? :eek:

But yes, C++ features OOP onto C.

The most commonly used for purpose with C++: Desktop applications.

A challenge? No... Just I don't see how you can write a kernel in PHP or a driver, or any low level operation. Same in C# even if some people made some sort of kernel in C# it still require some low level stuff which I believe is still done in C++. You could skip C++ and do in assembler, but I doubt it's more comfortable ;)
