@Mara@hachyderm.io Yes, it has. To see how, C++ always reminds me of this somewhat insensitive joke: A man goes to a tailor to get a new suit. When he tries it on, he complains, "This doesn't fit right at all!" The tailor says, "No, no, just pull your left shoulder up like this... and bend your right arm this way... now twist your back a little... and tilt your head to the side. See? Perfect fit!" So the man leaves the shop walking all contorted - left shoulder hiked up, right arm bent awkwardly, back twisted, head tilted. As he's walking down the street, two people see him. One says, "Oh, look at that poor man - he's so terribly deformed!" The other replies, "Yes, but my goodness, doesn't his suit fit him beautifully!" The man is the programmer. C++ is the suit.
