Learn C++ With The Shapes of Multi-Dimensional Arrays by Vincent Reverdy (CPPCon 2020) Video
May 2, 2021
This video will be concentrating on one of the many issues involved: How to manage the shapes and dimensions of high-performance multidimensional arrays. In order to prevent metaprogramming wizards from having a full unusable response, we will add one requirement: it must be…
Learn C++ With Neighborhoods Banding Together : Reasoning Globally About Programs by Lisa Lippincott (CPPCon 2020) Video
May 1, 2021
The most detailed rationale for programs is performed locally: considering the proximity of a program – usually a single function and the interfaces around it – and the reason for its action without reference to the rest of the program. This justification serves a broader objective: ensure that the whole program behaves appropriately. In this video, you will be learning how to put…
Learn C++ With Making Games Start Fast: A Story About Concurrency by Mathieu Ruport (CPPCon 2020) Video
April 26, 2021
Games taking too long to get started is a common criticism in game development. Players dislike it and developers spend a long time watching screen loading. The audience will be shown how Intel vTune can be used to profile threading problems, how “thread safe”…
Learn C++ With Back to Basics: Smart Pointers by Rainer Grimm (CPPCon 2020) Video
April 25, 2021
An important feature in C++11, from the library’s perspective, are smart pointers. Smart pointers are more than smart designed pointers. Smart pointer models are semantic. Understanding the semantic ownership of smart pointers is the key focus of this video and your…
Learn C++ With Modern C++ Safety and Security At 20 by Matthew Butler (CPPCon 2020) Video
April 18, 2021
With the features and language improvements aim to be more comprehensive than even C++11, the C++20 standard is now complete. Engineers employed in safety critical systems, protection or even applications that are exploited by customers every day have special language needs. In this video, you will be looking into the latest features and updates to the specification and see how they affect code…
Learn C++ With Back to Basics: Move Semantics by David Olsen (CPPCon 2020) Video
April 16, 2021
One of the many powerful improvements of C++11 is Move Semantics. It addresses a variety of programming problems that have been vexed by C++ developers for years. However, moving semantics can be easily misused, and the nuances are often difficult to get correct. This…
Our screens are 2D dimensional planes and consists of pixels in X and Y directions. How we display a 3D object in this 2D plane ? 3D objects in our 2D screens are projection of 3D coordinates by using mathematical calculations. In 3D operations, i.e. in 3D graphics, 3D…
In a previous post, we learned that pointers are variables to point address which is also an integer value. That means we can do arithmetic operations on a pointer variable. But do not forget that we operate on the addresses in our RAMs, so we should be careful and we should know the range well. Simply, we can use ++, –, +, and – arithmetic operators on pointers:
In a 32bit application…
