How to run an executable from C++

I have a need to run an executable from C++ code. And get the output of the run for some processing in C++. How do I do that? Does C++ support system command like Perl?

There is a system command in C/C++ but the way it is defined in C/C++ I am not sure that it actually returns the result of the program run.
