C++ is named after the C language, from which it is derived. C++ extends C into an object-oriented language. However, unlike other object-oriented languages, it doesn't try to force you into object-oriented programming, but is a multi-paradigm language. Besides conventional procedural programming and object-oriented programming, it also supports generic programming.

If you can't find an implementation for your task in the C++ category below, please look in the C category, as many of the tasks can be implemented identically in C and C++.

Versions

C++98 is the version of C++ standardized by ISO in 1998.
C++03 is a minor improvement to C++98, standardized by ISO in 2003.
TR1 (Technical Report 1) is a proposal for extensions to the C++ standard library. It was published in 2007. Many of its proposals made it into C++11. Many compilers support it, but put its headers in a different directory.
C++11 (formerly called C++0x and sometimes C++1x) is a significant improvement, adding many new language features and libraries. It was standardized by ISO in 2011. Most of its features are available in GCC [1] and Clang [2].
C++14 (formerly called C++1y) is a minor improvement to C++11, standardized by ISO in 2014. Most of its features are available in Clang [3], GCC [4], and Visual C++[5].
C++17 (formerly called C++1z) is a minor improvement to C++14, standardized by ISO in 2017. Most of its features are available in Clang [6], GCC [7], and Visual C++[8].
C++20 (formerly called C++2a) is a major improvement to C++17, standardized by ISO in 2020. Most of its features are implemented by Clang [9], GCC [10], and Visual C++[11]
C++23 (alternatively C++2b) is a minor improvement to C++20, expected to be standardized by ISO in 2023. Experimental support exists in GCC [12] and Clang [13]

-'''C++''' is named after the [[derived from::compatible with::C]] language, from which it is derived. C++ extends C into becoming an [[object-oriented language]]. However, unlike other object-oriented languages, it doesn't try to force you into [[object-oriented programming]], but is a multi-[[:Category:Programming Paradigms|paradigm]] language. Besides conventional [[procedural programming]] and object-oriented programming, it also supports [[generic programming]].

-The ++ in C++ is some what of an inside joke, in that C++ is C with a Post Increment operator attached, thus C++ is C + 1; however, this interpretation has the flaw that post-increment increments the value ''after'' returning the value, so the post-increment expression still evaluates to the value before the increment.
