C/C++

C++ is an object oriented computer language created by notable computer scientist Bjorne Stroustrop as part of the evolution of the C family of languages.

Some call C++ “C with classes” because it introduces object oriented programming principles, including the use of defined classes, to the C programming language framework.

C++ is pronounced "see-plus-plus."

When C++ was new, object oriented programming was just coming on the scene. This revolutionary type of computer programming transformed the coding world with its promise of more sophisticated virtual data types and objects.In object oriented programming, an object is a data type that has both data and functions inherent in its design. Prior to the advent of object oriented programming, programmers typically saw a codebase as composed of individual command line instructions. The identification of objects with data and functions built in led to a new way of packaging and automating code work.
