Why is C++ called a basic radical?

 The term "basic radical" is not commonly used in the context of programming languages like C++. It seems there might be some confusion here. C++ is often called a "middle-level" programming language rather than a "basic radical."

C++ is referred to as a middle-level language because it encompasses both high-level and low-level language features. It allows the development of system-level applications (like drivers and kernels), which is considered low-level programming, while also supporting object-oriented features typical of high-level languages, which are used for application development.
