It is well known that C and C++ are still one of the most dominant programming languages around. As I mentioned in the previous post Top 10 best applications written in C/C++ that most of the famous software, operating systems, games and other scientific tools and software applications are developed using C/C++.

In this article, I am going to share 50 outstanding websites and web pages. which I believe. every C or C++ developer should know and bookmark. This list provides direct links to programming source codes along with their description.

Some of you might think that 50 websites are not enough however I have tried to include the best C/C++ source code websites so that you get best source code examples.

If I have missed any website that you’ve found helpful, please make sure to get back to me to add them.
