RIP. He left behind a great programming language. C++ will stay with us for years to come.

How old was Dennis Ritchie?

According to wikipedia , he was born on September 9, 1941 so he had exactly 70 years..... not very old...but still.....sad news.

Even I didn't know very well the author who invented it, good to see how a big impact it was contributed to the technology.

To be honest, what's the C++ programming language? This is my first year to study IT :D
Operating systems are often written in either C or C++. Web browsers are often written in C++. Most games are written in C++. Many media editing programs (video editing, audio editing, photo editing) are written in C++. Almost any type of program, ranging from complex webservers to simple mine-sweeper games can be written in C++.

Eg: Hello world written in C++

This C++ Hello World tutorial is written for beginning C++ students without previous C++ programming experience. ...


Code:
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
void main()
{
  cout << "Hello World!" << endl;   cout << "Welcome to C++ Programming" << endl; }


#include <iostream> brings in the needed libraries for console output.
using namespace std; keeps you from having to type std::cout each time that output is needed.
void main() is the main function which executes first, before any other code. The word void means that the function does not return anything.
cout << is the output statement and strings need quotation marks.
End the cout line with a semicolon. If you use << endl; do not put a semicolon in the middle of the line. The endl; means that the next cout will have a new output line; this ends the line for this cout statement.

So he was a genius! But he is lost :( Why didn't he created a snapshot of himself using Rollback Rx when he was 60 years old :D

He is the inventor of C , not c++(c++ is invented Bjarne Stroustrup). C++ is combination of C and simula97. C++ is known as C with classes.
And Unix is written in C. LINUX,MAC and other operating system derived from UNIX.

If there is no C, then there is no UNIX.
If there is no UNIX, then there is no LINUX.
If there is no UNIX & Linux ,there is no security...

JVM is written in C(Java interpreter) . So if there is C, then there is no Java(i am not sure about it).

If there is no C, then there is Visual C/C++.
there is nothing without c. But most of them forget about Dennis Ritchie. I love C program and Dennis Ritchie..

LOL! Thanks for the giggle, very funny... Yeah if he did not create his wonders then we would of not seen the benefit of this today and what it's since turned into.

I'm strongly agree, for the future if I got a course of Computer Science, I really want to learn programming through C and C++ :D
