C++11 brought many novelties to the language, and few of them had a significant impact in how modern C++ code is written. One such feature is the introduction of initializer list. This feature can serve as a bridge when coming from a language like JavaScript where you can create and initialize an array or object at the same time. For example, in the provided code, we initialized a vector in a similar way you would do with an array in JavaScript.
Another influential feature of C++11 is the range-based 'for' loop, which allows you to iterate over collections like vectors, arrays, etc. This is seen in the same code example, and you can relate it to a 'forEach' loop in JavaScript. The 'auto' keyword, which automatically determines the correct type, is a further convenience, comparable to the way JavaScript handles variable types.
Thus, some of the new features in C++11 can make the transition from languages like JavaScript easier and coding in C++ a bit more intuitive.

cout << num << endl;
