C++ is almost, but not quite, a superset of C. Because of this, I'd
advise learning C first and then go on to learn C++ should you need to.
The primary difference between the languages is that C++ supports
object-oriented programming while C is procedural. If you won't be
using objects, don't worry about learning C++ now. There are other
differences between the languages, but none of those make a compelling
case to learn C++ in this situation.
