Invited Speaker Abstract
What C++ is and Why

Dr. Bjarne Stroustrup

Mendelssohn Theatre, Michigan League

Abstract

First the origins, aims, and design rules of C++ are presented. Next the
key language features and the design and programming techniques they
support are presented. Finally, I say a few words about current uses of
C++ and about the ISO C++ standard. The emphasis is on why C++ looks the
way it does and how it can be used well, rather than on syntactic details
or individual language features. The language facilities presented are the
ones that most directly support data abstraction, object-oriented
programming, and generic programming. The presentation centers on small
elegant code examples that provide the building blocks for larger systems.

Biography

Dr. Stroustrup is the Department Head in the Large-Scale Programming
Research Department at A T & T Research Lab.
