C# called C sharp why? (2024)

The term "sharp" is inspired by music notation that indicates that the musical note should be higher in pitch. This has been applied to the language C++, where "++" indicates that its performance will ideally be improved or increased by 1. The sharp symbol resembles four "+" symbols (in a grid of two-by-two), that may imply to some that C# is an advanced or improved version of C++.
