I came across a few articles referring to a C++ blob. What this is?
I have seen some code that uses it like this:
char blob[100];
element = lst->putBlob(blob, strlen(blob));
The code is not really important here, I just want to know what a "blob" is.

BLOB (Binary Large Object) Examples Common BLOB examples are: Video (MP4, MOV) Audio (MP3) Images (JPG, PNG, PDF, RAW)
Binary large object (BLOB) is a generic term used to describe the handling and storage of long strings of data by database management systems.
BLOB stands for Binary Large Object. It is defined as the chunk of binary data being stored as a single entity in a database system. BLOBs are used primarily to hold multimedia objects like images, videos, and sound, though they can also be used to store programs.
The Blob object represents a blob, which is a file-like object of immutable, raw data; they can be read as text or binary data, or converted into a ReadableStream so its methods can be used for processing the data. Blobs can represent data that isn't necessarily in a JavaScript-native format.
"Blob" stands for Binary large object.
