Bob Archer has posted a nice page showing where the different C++ symbols come from. Much faster than trying to load visual studio help and searching for the header section of the topic… C++ Standard library symbols

However, you’ve unfortunately made sure that any data you receive from this experiment will be useless. Why? Well, because your website and ordering process are HORRIBLE. I had so many problems getting your website to work that I almost gave [...]
Holy frijoles was that beautiful. That was absolutely one of coolest demos I have EVER seen. If I wasn’t wedded to C++, I’d switch over %100 to doing ActionScript development right now so that I could use that tool to make my GUIs.
