Andrew Richard Koenig (IPA: [ˈkøːnɪç]; born June 1952) is a former AT&T and Bell Labs researcher and programmer.[1][unreliable source?] He is the author of C Traps and Pitfalls and co-author (with Barbara Moo) of Accelerated C++ and Ruminations on C++, and his name is associated with argument-dependent name lookup, also known as "Koenig lookup",[2] though he is not its inventor.[3] He served as the Project Editor of the ISO/ANSI standards committee for C++,[4] and has authored over 150 papers on C++.

Early life and career

[edit]

Koenig graduated from The Bronx High School of Science in 1968 [5] and went on to receive a Bachelor of Science degree and a Master of Science degree from Columbia University in New York. He was a prominent member of the Columbia University Center for Computing Activities (CUCCA) in the late 1960s and 1970s. He wrote the first e-mail program used at the university.[6]

In 1977, he joined the technical staff of Bell Labs in Murray Hill, New Jersey, from which he later retired.

The first book he authored, in 1987, C Traps and Pitfalls, had been motivated by his prior paper and work, mostly as a staff member at Columbia University, on a different computer language, PL/I. In 1977, as a recently hired staff member at Bell Labs, he presented a paper called "PL/I Traps and Pitfalls" at a SHARE meeting in Washington, D.C.[7]
