<blockquote>
<p>The C++ Standard (ISO/IEC 14882) is available online as a
PDF file from the <a href="http://www.ansi.org">ANSI</a> (American
National Standards Institute) Electronic Standards Store.&nbsp;
The price is $US 18.00. The document is certainly not a
tutorial, but is interesting to those who care about the
precise specification of the language and the standard
library.</p>
