Why Objective-C is Hard

The C++ standard library is actually quite small. Check Herb Sutter's keynote at Going Native 2012 for an entertaining visualization of its size compared to the Java or C# standard libraries: http://channel9.msdn.com/Events/GoingNative/GoingNative-2012...

Compared to the Java and C# libs, yes, the C++ std lib is small. In terms of complexity and ease of use, it's a different picture.

The IO libraries are kind of a mess but I don't find the algorithms and containers significantly more difficult to use than similar implementations in other languages.
