I never did like the name "C++". It should be "C + 1". "C++" implies you've assigned the value back to C, in which case you shouldn't be referring to it with the "++" anymore, and if you do that means every time you reference it it gets incremented again.. ridiculous.
@jordyd That'd explain why when I look into new codebases I see C with more features I hadn't seen or made sense of before.
@jordyd it represents its ever-increasing improvement upon C
it also means C is going to overflow
@nonphatic
So what you're saying is we have to stop talking about it before it overflows
@jordyd
<- 11
<- 14
<- ...
must be some weird overridden operator+=
Well, I suppose incrementing it every time you reference it is true to the spirit of C++'s featureset
