Fun Trivia!

No, there is not a C+. "C++" is just a cute name they decided on based on the fact that in all of the "C" languages (including regular C), the string "++" is shorthand for "add one". So for example:

int MyNumber = 5;
(^^ This means, "Here's an integer, we're going to refer to it as "MyNumber", and it's 5.)

MyNumber++;
(^^ This is equivalent to "MyNumber = MyNumber + 1;" i.e., "add one". "MyNumber" is now equal to 6.)
