When I enter the password for my login it works
But when I use the same password for installing gcc or g++ or any package it asks me "sorry, try again
I have not set any other password other than login
root sudo package-managers ubuntu-18.04

Welcome to SO. Your problem seems to be related to Ubuntu privileges or package installation. The fact that the affected package is some programming language does not make it a C or C++problem.
