While C++ is one of the most modern programming languages in the world, in 2024, it still has problems with strings and conversions. One of the problems is new std::basic_string types, it is hard to display and convert them. For example, there are no perfect conversion methods between basic_strings, especially, from higher character type strings to lower character type strings, such as conversion…
I think one of the biggest problems in C++ today is there’s no perfect library to do conversions between strings in a global locale distribution. There are most problems when displaying or converting some characters in most languages. Moreover, there are more…
In C++, one of the most used variable types are text strings, also known as alfa-numeric variables, and they are really important when storing and retrieving valuable data. It is important to store your data safely in its language and localization. In modern C++, strings are…
In C++, one of the most used variable types are text strings, also known as alphanumeric variables, and they are really important when storing and retrieving valuable data. It is important to store your data safely in its language and localization. In modern C++, strings are std::basic_string types such as std::string, and std::wstring. In this post, we explain some methods of std::wstring in…
In addition to many beneficial features of C++ 17, there are elementary string conversions introduced in that specification. The std::to_chars() and std::from_chars() are defined in <charconv> header to do conversions between numeric values to strings or strings to…
C++17 had enormous changes in C++ features. One of them was basic_string_view (std::basic_string_view) which is a constant string container that can be used for multiple string declarations. The basic_string_view is a modern way of read-only text definition. It can be…
In programming, one of the most used variable types are text strings, and they are sometimes really important when storing and retrieving valuable data. It is important to store your data safely in its language and localization. Most programming languages have issues when storing texts and letters. In C++, there is very old well-known string type (arrays of chars) and modern types…
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…
One of the main data types of programming is the string. Strings are important in every step of programming. They should be used carefully so they are displayed and function correctly which is especially important if you are developing global applications that use different…
How can I use insert() method of std::string in my C++ app? How can I insert a string into another string? Can we insert a char array into a string? How can I insert number of chars into a string? Is it possible to insert a substring of a string into another string? Here are the answers with C++ examples.
What is a string in a C++ app?
In a C++, app in addition to int, float, double there…
