C++ is a general-purpose programming language with high-level and low-level capabilities. It is a statically typed, free-form, multi-paradigm, usually compiled language supporting procedural programming, data abstraction, object-oriented programming, and generic programming.
C++ is regarded as a mid-level language. This indicates that C++ comprises a combination of both high-level and low-level language features.
As the C++ language evolved, a standard library also evolved with it. The first addition to the C++ standard library was the stream I/O library which provided facilities to replace the traditional C functions such as printf and scanf. Later, among the most significant additions to the standard library, was the Standard Template Library. it can get complicated

c++ (pronounced C Plus Plus) is a programming language that stems from an older programming language called C.
The ++ indicates that it is C with added features (++ in programming is usually used to increment a number so c++ would be c+1 ie a higher version). The main feature is its object orientated design.
Although it is an old language it is still widely used. Many programs you are probably currently running will have been written using it (including Microsoft Windows and Linux)

C++ Is a "C" Object Oriented Programming Language
Where "C" comes from as follows: Before C, there was Basic Control Programming Language , BCPL, .It was called as "B".Then an enhanced version of B was developed. So it was named as C, then C++ followed, an extension of C by adding some enhancements to C language.
Now for what Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) means,
that is a whole days explanation

It's the name of a mid programming language. It was called C with classes, renamed C++ in 1983.

It is a programming language.
C++ means the ancestor C plus number of new elements adds to it. The new or the plus in c are object oriented feature of the language.
C is just function oriented PL which doesn't give emphasis to data. So one of the new element you have is class, inheritance, polymorphism, encapsulation (which is not new) etc.

the only way that you can understand C++ is if you know incremetation and decrementation ok then C is the old verstion of C++ incremetation means adding some features to the C language while incremetation in C++ means incrementing some value or updating
all and all this is Fully updated C language by an
