25th Anniversary of C++

This Thursday will mark the 25th anniversary of the commercial release of the programming language C++, which was designed and implemented by our very own Distinguished Professor and College of Engineering Chair in Computer Science Dr. Bjarne Stroustrup. C++ is one of the most popular programming languages in the world. The first commercial release of the language and the publication of the first edition of the book entitled "The C++ Programming Language" happened on October 14, 1985.
