Welcome to Bjarne Stroustrup's homepage!

I designed and implemented the C++ programming language. To make C++ a stable and up-to-date base for real-world software development, I have stuck with its ISO standards effort for 30+ years (so far). I'm a professor of Computer Science in Columbia University in New York City.
