(i) Modular programming is a software design technique to split your code into separate parts.
(ii) These parts are called modules. The focus for this separation should have modules with no or just few dependencies upon other modules.

'cd' command refers to change directory and absolute path refers to the couple path.
(Eg) "cd c:\program files\open office 4\program"

Modular programming is a software design technique to split our code into separate parts. These parts are called modules. The focus for this separation should have modules with no or just few dependencies upon other modules.

(i) SWIG - Simplified Wrapper Interface Generator
(ii) MinGW - Minimalist GNU for Windows

(i) The theoretical difference between the two is that scripting languages do not require the compilation step and are rather interpreted.
(ii) For example, normally, a C++ program needs to be compiled before running whereas, a scripting language like JavaScript or Python need not be compiled.
(iii) A scripting language requires an interpreter while a programming language requires a compiler. 

sys.argv is the list of command-line arguments passed to the Python program. argv contains all the items that come along via the command-line input, it's basically an array holding the command-line arguments of the program.
To use syss.argv, we will first have to import sys. The first argument, sys.argv [0], is always the name of the program as it was invoked and sys.argv [1] is the first argument we pass to the program.
Example:
main (sys.argv [1]) - Accepts the program file and the input file as a list. argv[0] contains the python program which is need not to be passed because by default _main_contains source code reference and argv[1] contains the name of the C++ file which is to be processed.

(i) MinGW refers to a set of runtime header files, used in compiling and linking the code of C, C++ and FORTRAN to be run on Windows Operating System.
(ii) MinGw- W64 (version of MinGW) is the best compiler for C++ on Windows. To compile and execute the C++ program, need 'g++' for Windows. MinGW allows to compile and execute C++ program dynamically through Python program using g++.
(iii) Python program that contains the c++ coding can be executed only through 'MinGW_w64 project' run terminal. The run terminal open the command -line window through which Python program should be executed.
(iv) g++ is a program that calls GCC (GNU C compiler) and automatically links the required C++ Library files to the object code.

(i) To automate certain tasks in a program
(ii) Extracting information from a data set
(iii) Less code intensive as compared to traditional programming language
(iv) can bring new functions to applications and glue complex systems together
(v) Conjuction with other programming languages HTML, Java, C++.

Execution Steps:
//save above file as welcome.cpp
#Now select File -> New in Notepad and type the Python program
#save the file as fun.py
#Program that compiles and executes a .cpp file
#Python fun.py- iC: |pyprg| welcome - file.cpp
Program:
import sys, os, getopt
def main (argv):
cpp_file="
exe_file="
opts, args = getopt.getopt(argv, "i:", ['ifile='])
for o a in opts
if o in ("-i, "--ifile"):
cpp_file=a+ .'cpp'
exe_file = a+ 'exe'
run (cpp_file, exe_file)
def run (cpp_file, exe_file):
print("Compiling" + Cpp_file)
os.system ('g++' + cpp_file+'_o'+exe_file)
print("Running" + exe_file)
print("---------------")
print
Os.system(exe_file)
print
if_name_=='_main_':
main (sys.argv [1:])
Output:
welcome.

getopt() method returns value consisting of two elements. Each of these values are stored separately in two different list opts and args. opts contains list of splitted strings like made, path and args contains any string if at all not splitted because of wrong path or mode. args will be an empty array if there is no error in splitting strings by getopt().
Example:
The Python code which is going to execute the C++ file p4 in command line will have the getopt() method.
Syntax:
opts, args = getopt.getopt (argv, "i:", ['ifile ='])
where opts contains ('-i','c:\\pyprg\\p4')]]
-i:- option nothing but mode should be followed by
'c:\\pyprg\\p4' value nothing but the absolute path of C++ file,
Since the entire command-line commands are parsed and no leftover arguments, the second argunent args will be empty[].

(i) Python uses Automatic Garbage Collection whereas C++ does not.
(ii) C++ is a statically typed language, while Python is a dynamically typed language.
(iii) Python runs through an interpreter, while C++ is pre-compiled.
(iv) Python code tends to be 5 to 10 times shorter than that written in C++.
(v) In Python, there is no need to declare types explicitly where as it should be done in C++.
(vi) In Python, a function may accept an argument of any type, and return multiple values without any kind of declaration beforehand. Whereas in C++ return statement can return only one value.
