C++ gets upgrade
 
It is now called 'C++20'

The International Organisation for Standardisation's (ISO) C++ group, Working Group 21 (WG21), has agreed upon the finalised version of 'C++20', the first major update to the 35 year-old programming language since C++17 from 2017.

Herb Sutter, a Microsoft engineer and long-time chair of WG21 C++ ISO committee, said it "will be C++'s largest release since C++11", meaning it's bigger than any of the past three releases, which happen every three years. It's also the first version that has been standardised.

Two of the most important features coming to C++20 are "modules" and "coroutines". Modules, which was led by Google's Richard Smith, stands in for header files and helps isolate the effects of macros while supporting larger builds.

Sutter saidC++20 marks the "first time in about 35 years that C++ has added a new feature where users can define a named encapsulation boundary".
