{{reflist |group="lower-alpha"|refs=
<ref name="sinceCXX11" group="lower-alpha">since C++11</ref>
<ref name="sinceCXX23" group="lower-alpha">since C++23</ref>
<ref name="modulo" group="lower-alpha">The modulus operator only supports integer operands; for floating point, a function such as [[math.h|{{code|fmod|cpp}}]] can be used.</ref>
<ref name="bitshift" group="lower-alpha">In the context of [[iostream]]s in C++, writers often will refer to {{cpp|<<}} and {{cpp|>>}} as the "put-to" or "stream insertion" and "get-from" or "stream extraction" operators, respectively.</ref>
<ref name="addressof2" group="lower-alpha">The actual address of an object with an overloaded <code>operator &</code> can be obtained with [https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/memory/addressof <code>std::addressof</code>]</ref>
<ref name="arrowptr" group="lower-alpha">The return type of {{cpp|operator->()}} must be a type for which the {{cpp |->}} operation can be applied, such as a pointer type. If {{cpp|x}} is of type {{cpp |C}} where {{cpp |C}} overloads {{cpp|operator->()}}, {{cpp|x->y}} gets expanded to {{cpp|x.operator->()->y}}.</ref>

<ref name="scopal" group="lower-alpha">Although a <code>::</code> punctuator exists in C as of C23, it is not used as a scope resolution operator.</ref>

<ref name="sizeof" group="lower-alpha">The parentheses are not necessary when taking the size of a value, only when taking the size of a type. However, they are usually used regardless.{{Citation needed|date=July 2024}}</ref>
<ref name="alignof" group = "lower-alpha">C++ defines <code>alignof</code> operator, whereas C defines <code>_Alignof</code> (C23 defines both). Both operators have the same semantics.</ref>

<ref name="infer" group="lower-alpha">The type name can also be inferred (e.g <code>new auto</code>) if an initializer is provided.</ref>
<ref name="infer2" group="lower-alpha">The array size can also be inferred if an initializer is provided.</ref>
