Not quite, I'm afraid.

No.  FreeBSD is written mostly in C.  C++ is a very different language,
so please don't mix the two.

"Jokes" like this are not good responses to a list that you expect help
from.  We all know what books are good for.  You do too.

That "direction" though may very well be a simple reference to a more
authoritative source of information, i.e. a map.  In the specific case
of programming languages, the standards or books that define the
languages are the _most_ authoritative sources of information.

Therefore, the reply "get yourself a good book and read it" is actually
correct.
