I hope it doesn't take more.
I don't understand why the ISO standard doesn't use std as the default
namespace. Why call it std if it's not the default standard namespace?
Imagine if the C spec changes standard in, out, and error (stdout,
sdtin, and stderr) to be required. So now this code:
printf("Type your name:");
scanf("%s",name);
printf("Hello %s!\n",name);
became
fprintf(stdout,...);
fscanf(stdin,...);
fprintf(sdtout...);
That's the kind of change the C++ standard is making.
