They're getting print in c++
Meanwhile c has it since, -11 before the Christ.

"But Krusty, why now? Why not 40 years ago?"

i mean for real, who even std::cout << "does it like this." << std::endl.

To be fair, if it exists in c, it also exists in c++. There was probably no rush to implement something that's already available.

Interesting, I didn’t know it was forbidden to use C's print in C++.

@Lensflare it's not. It's just why reimplements it. And why cout

@3dgoosee it was sarcasm ^^

My guess is that C++ wanted to implement string interpolation, which was the new hot shit at that time. But ended up with a kind of a hybrid between concatenation and interpolation.

I bet chatgpt could tell you more :)
