Reasons Why You Should Keep Learning C/C++

Many beginners and students find C/C++ language hard to master because it requires them to think a lot. There are many language-specific quirks, especially in C++, that give students and programmers a hard time. It also has a steep learning curve and is rarely used in modern application development, which prompts many people to give … Continue reading Reasons Why You Should Keep Learning C/C++

The Rule of Zero in C++

Now that we’re clear on the Compiler-generated Functions, the Rule of Three and the Rule of Five, let’s put this to use to reflect on how to use the “= default” feature to have expressive and correct code. Indeed, C++11 added the possibility to require from the compiler that it write a default implementation for these […]

Report from the February 2019 ISO C++ meeting (Core Language working group) by Jason Merrill

From the article:

The February 2019 ISO C++ meeting was held in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii. As usual, Red Hat sent three developers to the meeting: I attended in the Core Language working group, Jonathan Wakely in Library, and Thomas Rodgers in SG1 (parallelism and concurrency). The meeting went smoothly, although there was significant uncertainty at the beginning where we would end up. In the end, Modules and Coroutines were accepted into the C++20 draft, so now we have our work cut out for us nailing down the remaining loose corners. Here ar highlights from the (...)

How to Emulate the Spaceship Operator Before C++20 with CRTP—Henrik Sjöström

How to Emulate the Spaceship Operator Before C++20 with CRTP by Henrik Sjöström

From the article:

Making a class comparable is usually something of a chore. In C++20 we’ll get the “three-way comparison operator” or informally spaceship operator <=>. It will allow the compiler to create comparison operators when we want a simple lexicographical comparison and when we have a more complex comparison we only need to implement a single operator to be able to do all comparisons...

Abseil Support for CMake
▻https://abseil.io/blog/20190402-cmake-support

By Jon Cohen, Abseil Engineer

CMake is a popular tool used to build multi-platform C++ projects. Abseil has had unofficial CMake support for some time, but support has never been as robust as that for Bazel. We are happy to announce that Abseil now fully supports the CMake build system.

Abseil supports CMake through the add_subdirectory command for full source inclusion, or by local installation into your project. Future Abseil LTS releases will be supported for installation in system-wide locations (such as /usr/local, CMake’s default install location).

We hope that this support will make it easier for users to adopt Abseil and for package managers to successfully and easily package Abseil.

You might have heard about the python which is the topmost programming language of the computers. It is a high-level programming language which is having dynamic semantics. As it, language is very easy and readable, so it reduces the cost of program maintenance.As Python is considered to be the simplest programming language of all, its usage is also ranked in the topmost place. In regard to this, a few seconds are needed to spend at the below-given graph:One of the major advantages of its being easy is that it is very easy to interface with other languages as well particularly with C and C++.
