C++is a general-purposeprogramming Language with a bias towards systems Programming that supports efficientlow-level computation, data abstraction, object-oriented Programming , and generic Introduction and OverviewThe C++ Programming Language provides a model of memory and computation that closely matches that ofmost computers. In addition, it provides powerful and flexible mechanisms for abstraction; that is, lan-guage constructs that allow the programmer to introduce and use new types of objects that match the con-cepts of an application. Thus, C++supports styles of Programming that rely on fairly direct manipulationof hardware resources to deliver a high degree of efficiency plus higher-level styles of Programming thatrely on user-defined types to provide a model of data and computation that is closer to a human s view ofthe task being performed by a computer.
