C++17 is another big milestone in the history of C++, it comes with a lot of new features. In C++17, the fold expressions feature is a powerful feature that allows us to fold a parameter pack over a binary operator. Folding Expressions are very useful with variadic templates, and this feature makes template arguments more readable and concise. There are 4 different types of usage and in this…
In C++11 and C++14, we were able to use this math.h library in C++ applications. After the C++17 standard, this library is modernized in the cmath library, and functions are declared in <cmath> header for compatibility reasons in modern C++, and the <math.h> is an…
When Is The CMath Mathematical Special Functions Header Used in Modern C++?
December 1, 2023
The math library <math.h> in C language is designed to be used in mathematical operations. From the first C language to the latest C++ Builder 12, there have been many changes and improvements in both hardware and software. We were able to use this math.h library in…
In C++11 and C++14, we were able to use this math.h library in C++ applications. After the C++17 standard, this library modernized math operations with the cmath library. Functions are declared in <cmath> header. For compatibility reasons the <math.h> is an optional alternative to support older code. In this post, we list most of these mathematical functions declared in the <cmath>…
The features of C++17 were a big step in the history of C++ and brought a lot of new features. In C++17, there are new auto rules for direct-list-initialization. This feature in C++, changes the rules for auto deduction from a braced-init-list. In this post, we explain what…
In C++14, there are pretty good new overloads of std::equal, std::mismatch, and std::is_permutation that can be used to take a pair of iterators for the second range. They can be used with the new C++ Builder 12 along with the 11.x, or 10.x versions too. In this post, we…
C++14 brought us a lot of useful things that we use today. One of the great features of C++14 was the member initializers and aggregates feature that a class with default member initializers may now be an aggregate. In this post, we explain how can use member initializers and aggregates with examples.
What are the member initializers and aggregates features in C++14?
With the new C++14, a…
In modern programming sometimes we want to use a sequence of integers that are created at compile-time. In C++14, the std::integer_sequence is a class template for the sequence of integers that is generated at compile-time. In this post, we explain what integer sequence…
Iterators are one of the most useful features of containers in modern C++. Mostly we use them with vectors, maps, strings, and other containers of C++. In C++11, the begin() and end() iterators are used to define the start of iteration and the end of the iteration, mostly…
In C++11, the final specifier is used for a function or for a class that cannot be overridden by derived classes, and there was no way to check if that class or method is the final. In C++14, there is a std::is_final type trait that can be used to detect if a class or a method is marked as a final or not. In this post, we explain how we can use the std::is_final type trait in C++14 and…
