pythonesque constructs for c++

[Josh]

One of the best features of python is its ease of use, and the ease of use
of its modules. Modules like os, os.path, and datetime are invaluable!

Does anyone know of analagous c++ libraries? It seems to me that most of the
functionality of these modules could easily be replicated in c++. Before I
go about doing that, I was just wondering if anyone knows if they already
exist?

thanks,
Josh

Check out Boost.

Sure, there are many. Apart from the already named, also widget
libraries often bring their own tools for this. wxWidgets and Qt
do, for instance.
