C++ Programming Language

C++

C++ is a general-purpose programming language developed by Bjarne Stroustrup at Bell Labs in the early 1980s.
It is an extension of the C programming language with additional features such as classes and objects, making it an object-oriented programming (OOP) language.
Classes and objects are fundamental concepts in C++, allowing for the creation of modular and reusable code.
It supports low-level programming with features like pointers and direct memory manipulation.
The STL is a powerful feature of C++ that provides a collection of template classes and functions.
C++ allows manual memory management through pointers, but it also supports automatic memory management with features like constructors and destructors.
The C++ Standard is maintained by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), ensuring a standardized and portable language specification.
C++ is widely used in various domains, including system/software development, game development, embedded systems, real-time systems, and high-performance computing.
