C++ is an Object Oriented programming language standardized by the ISO. It was developed in 1979 by Bjarne Stroustrup at AT&T Bell Labs as a “child” of the C programming language. A C++ source file will have the extension ”.cpp” and the header will have the obvious ”.h”. The latest version of C++ is C++11. Confused? See the links below.
