    EASTL stands for Electronic Arts Standard Template Library. It is an extensive and robust implementation that has an emphasis on high performance.

    C and C++ have been very popular languages for application development for a long time, so a lot of code has already been written for them. If you get stuck on some large and complex problem, there will probably be a code library out there that can solve it for you. There's a rich variety of utilities and libraries out there for C++, such as the EASTL, an alternative to the standard library that focuses on maximum performance for running games on limited hardware. (Like I said: you can make your own stuff that's on par with what C++ offers out of the box.)
