I decided to do a little more research on what these two things meant. According to Msdn.microsoft.com, C++ was designed to be a low-level, platform nuetral, object-oriented programming language. Windows from the 1990s would be an example of this.
Now we have C#. this was created as a higher-level, component-oriented language.
There is not precise control like in C++ , it has a framework that helps the user focus on a larger picture. C++ allows the user to control everything, even the layout.
C# is also referred to as .NET on the msdn.mircrosoft.com website. An example of this would be Microsoft.

According to Computingverticals.com, Java, C#, C++ have similar languages which makes them easy to use. C# was made for the gaps that existed between C++ and VB, another programming language. C# is suppose to be for intermediate level use and more user friendly than other languages. C# borrows keywords from C++ so transferring is easier and programming becomes easier for users of C++ going to C#.
