What is C file?
The C file extension is used for files written in the C programming language. This programming language was developed in 1970s for use in UNIX operating systems with the intent of allowing users to design and build their own programs. It is a procedural, high-level, compiled programming language that is popular for many application areas, such as system programming, embedded applications, operating systems, and graphical user interfaces (GUI).

What is CXX file?
The CXX .CXX file extension is associated with the source code written in the object-oriented programming language, C++. C++ is a general-purpose, compiled, compiled-language that supports object-oriented programming and was created by Bjarne Stroustrup and released to the public in 1985. It runs on platforms including Windows, Unix/Linux, Mac OS X and other operating systems in use today. Uses of CXX (C++ Source Code File) C++ is often used for software development or game programming. [ ⏩ ] CXX file extension
Software, that you can use to convert
How to convert the file from C to CXX?
To successfully convert the C file to CXX, you should install one of the applications from the list. After installing the software, open the program and select the file you want to convert (file-name.C). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case CXX (usually converters allow you to convert to several different formats, so check out their features - maybe one of the available formats will suit you more than CXX).
What is a file conversion?
A data conversion is normally an automated process to some extent. The effect of the operation of one program is automatically the input product of another application. If that does not happen we need to help the process a little bit and convert the file on our own, e.g. C to CXX. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.
Program for converting C files to CXX files is a kind of a "binary code translator" compensating for the differences in the code or translating it in such a way so that another application could use it. For us, as users, the visible change will be only another file extension. (After converting the file, it will be the extension CXX, while before this step we had the C file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new CXX file, or not.
