C++ Keywords



There are 60 keywords currently defined for C++. These are shown in the table below. Together with the formal C++ syntax, they form the C++ programming language. As programming languages mature, keywords are often added or deleted from the language.


Keep in mind that the case of the keywords is significant. C++ is a case-sensitive language, and it requires that all keywords be in lowercase. For example, RETURN will not be recognized as the keyword return.
