4. The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (30 December 2018)
plus
+

    "+", ASCII character 43, 0x2B.  The mathematical
   symbol for the addition operator, also used with the same
   meaning in arithmetic expressions in nearly all programming
   languages.

   Common names: ITU-T: plus; add.  Rare: cross; INTERCAL:
   intersection.

   In programming, the operator is sometimes overloaded to
   perform other tasks like concatenating strings.  In the C
   language and its many imitators, the symbol is doubled, as in
   "x++" or "++x" to give an increment operator that adds one to
   its operand ("x" in this case) and also returns x's previous
   or resulting value respectively.

   In a regular expression, "+" means match one or more
   instances of the previous pattern.  Thus /b(an)+a/ would match
   any of "bana", "banana", "bananana", etc. (see banana
   problem).
