Whoops, chopped off my last paragraph; I meant: It has many other advantages however, including those from OOP, and more unusually, a notational power that makes certain sorts of programs _much_ easier to write/read. [Part of this is the fact that doing so can be done _efficiently_ -- it's very common to see e.g. java programs which are hard to read and have subtle bugs because of the tricks they're playing to avoid heap allocating temporary objects. Because C++ allows using value (or value-like) semantics instead in many cases, you don't need so many tricks, and it can greatly improve the maintainability of the code.]
