Package to parse C/C++ code in LaTex document and output in the original document

I am a beginner in writing code in LaTeX (and I use LyX). Being a student of statistics, I use R and have already used the Rnw(knitr) module to output the result of an R code chunk in the output pdf (using the traditional Sweave syntax). As stated by Yihui Xie here,

‘knitr extracts R code in the input document, evaluates it and writes the results to the output document’.

Out of curiosity, I surfed the internet a bit and found pythontex and as stated by Geoffrey Poore in here,

‘PythonTeX executes code in LaTeX documents and allows the output to be included in the original document. It supports Python as well as Bash, JavaScript, Julia, Octave, Perl, R, Raku (Perl 6), Ruby, Rust, and SageMath’.

Here’s the Conference Presentation of pythontex given by Geoffrey M. Poore himself. Now setting up LyX to work with pythontex can be done as described in this TeX SE question.

I was wondering if the same can be done with C/C++ codes also. I surfed the internet but couldn’t get any satisfactory results.

Does such a package exist? If not, is there a specific reason as to why this is not made till now?
