You mean C/C++? C's standard library is well documented. C++ has basically multiple standard libraries so I can understand how documentation may seem poor, but for the most part it's such a widespread language that finding examples is pretty easy.

If you mean third party libraries, well, that can vary widely of course, and that's just the fault of the third party library maintainers. Other languages might suffer less from this just because they include more things in their standard libraries which get documented as part of their own process, where as C has a much simpler standard library so there are more third party libraries written for complex tasks by individuals of differing levels of concern for thorough documentation.

Back to C's standard library though, often documentation is as simple as
$ man [function]

Or what >>60822644 said
$ man function


For boost, see: http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/

Because you can just read the code.
