About: Criticism of C++

An Entity of Type: language, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Although C++ is one of the most widespread programming languages, many prominent software engineers criticize C++ (the language, and its compilers) for being overly complex and fundamentally flawed. Among the critics have been: Robert Pike, Joshua Bloch, Linus Torvalds, Donald Knuth, Richard Stallman, and Ken Thompson. C++ was widely adopted and implemented as a systems language through most of its existence, it has been used to build many pieces of very important software (such types of software include, but are not limited to: operating systems, runtime systems, programming language interpreters, parsers, lexers, compilers, etc...).
