*Please describe the question or issue you're facing with "Develop C and C with Clang on Ubuntu - Ubuntu for Developers".*

https://documentation.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-for-developers/tutorials/clang-use/#building-with-clang-directly

Documentation error

Currently reads
clang -o hello src/hello.cpp

Should read
clang++ -o hello src/hello.cpp

or

clang -x c++ -lstdc++ -o hello src/hello.cpp

* using the C++ compiler wrapper
clang++

* using the clang driver itself and explicitly declaring the c++ language and the c++ standard library
clang -x c++ -lstdc++
