Random numbers are one of the most important parts of today’s modern programming technologies. They are used in mathematics, physics, in many engineering fields, and in programming such as generating random data for testing, random maps in levels, random trees on a planet – the list is endless. Since C++11, mt19937 (std::mt19937) is implemented as […]
Hello developers. Our previous sessions in our Winter Webinars series which showed you how to create a real Android app step by step“, how to create a real iOS app (even if you do not have a mac), how to create a real windows app, create a real Mac app, are extremely popular. It’s great […]
A concurrency support library is designed to solve problems in modern C++ that arise with multi-thread development. This library includes built-in support for threads (std::thread), atomic operations (std::atomic), mutual exclusion (std::mutex), condition variables (std::condition_variable), and many other features. In C++14, in addition to mutex, there is a shared_mutex which is an instance of the class located in […]
Containers are powerful data storage arrays in modern C++ and they are very useful to iterate and search data with their amazing methods and properties. The C++ Standards library defines 4 container types. In this post, we explain containers in modern C++. What is a container in modern C++? Containers are modern data storage arrays in modern […]
The concurrency support library in modern C++ is designed to solve read and write data securely in thread operations that allow us to develop faster multi-thread apps. This library includes built-in support for threads (std::thread), atomic operations (std::atomic), mutual exclusion (std::mutex), condition variables (std::condition_variable), and many other features. In C++14, in addition to mutex, there is a […]
Hello C++ Developers. As I write this post, the summer is over (if you live in the Northern hemisphere), and, in most countries, the new educational year has started, and we wish good luck to all students. If you are a student and want to learn C++, we have a lot of educational posts for […]
Sometimes we want to preserve the string format especially when we use string in a string with /”. In C++14 and above, there is a std::quoted template that allows handling strings safely where they may contain spaces and special characters and it keeps their formatting intact. In this post, we explain std::quoted quoted strings in […]
Structured Diagnostics in the New Problem Details Window Sy Brand October 11th, 20230 2 Massive compiler errors which seem impossible to navigate are the bane of many C++ developers’ lives. It’s up to tools to provide a better experience to help you comprehend diagnostics and understand how to fix the root issue. I wrote Concepts […]
The auto keyword arrives with the new features of the C++11 and the standards above. In C++14, there is a new decltype that is used with auto keyword. In modern C++, the decltype(auto) type-specifier deduces return types while keeping their references and cv-qualifiers, while auto does not. In this post, we explain what decltype (auto) is in […]
The C++14 standard (and later), brings a lot of useful smart pointers and improvements on them. They help us to avoid the mistake of incorrectly freeing the memory addressed by pointers. In modern C++, we have the new and delete operators that are used to allocate and free objects from memory, and in this post, […]
