Brief History Of C++ ;
In 1967, BCPL language was developed by Martin Richards. The BCPL Language was used to write operating systems and compilers. After two years, Ken Thomson developed B programming language. B programming language had advance features as compared with BCPL . The UNIX operating system was first developed in B in 1970 at Bell Laboratory . Both BCPL and B were "type-less" languages. Thus each data item in these languages occupied one "word" in the memory .
In 1972, Dennis Ritche developed C language at Bell laboratory. The C language was an andvanced version of B language . It had many important concepts of BCPL and B. New features, like data typing and many other functions were also included in C. The next version of Unix was revised and written in C. C language was developed as a computer independent language. A program written in C can be run on any computer.
In early 1980s, C++ was developed by Bjarne Stroustrup. It was an extension of C. It was designed for the Unix system environment. C++ enabled programming to improve the quality of  code. It included object oriented programming .
