Dear FOSSouls,
Kindly forward this mail to all those who think that Turbo C++ (legacy
IDE of 1991) is either necessary or sufficient. Just ask them to run
this simple code of ISO standard C++ -
#include<iostream>
#include<string>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
string s;
cout << "Please enter your first name followed by a newline\n";
cin >> s;
cout << "Hello, " << s << '\n';
return 0; // this return statement isn't necessary
}
Turbo C++ of 1991 will fail because namespaces were added to C++ in
1998. Any C++ program without namespaces is a sin today. This is a
simple test code given by none other than Bjarne Stroustrup - the
creator of C++!
Still any room left for Turbo C++?
