As requested at https://github.com/carbon-language/carbon-lang/pull/2332#discussion_r1002257672, "Very minor, but "C/C++" irritates some people in the C++ community so we may as well avoid it here."

## TODO
|
|
|
|
This is a skeletal design, added to support [the overview](README.md). It should
|
|
not be treated as accepted by the core team; rather, it is a placeholder until
|
|
we have more time to examine this detail. Please feel welcome to rewrite and
|
|
update as appropriate.
|
|
|
|
See [proposal PR 89](https://github.com/carbon-language/carbon-lang/pull/89) for
|
|
context -- that proposal may replace this.

|
## Overview
|
|
|
|
Carbon provides metaprogramming facilities that look similar to regular Carbon
|
|
code. These are structured, and do not offer inclusion or arbitrary
|
|
preprocessing of source text such as C and C++ do.
