Just that C is less forgiving to mistakes than Go is

golang has one specification and one reference implementation, and both are pretty easy to understand, even if the underlying concepts were extremely difficult to design

GoLang is offtopic here, sorry

We are c++ guys and prefer c++

golang has one specification and one reference implementation, and both are pretty easy to understand, even if the underlying concepts were extremely difficult to design

If you look at a well made standard library for C (aka not glibc) you should find it very simple in implementation, but if you can understand how the GC of Go exactly works you have gone a good step in mastering both Go and C

No, error types

yeah, i'm pretty scared by glibc (as much as llvm)

Go look at OpenBSD libc (requires to take a look at OpenBSD too tho)

Did you know that C standard library in Android is written in C++?😂

Well, why would it not be. I mean it is just a language

Just an interesting fact

C++ is safer than C so that is not a surprise

I mean, you can write self sanitizing C++ code, good luck with making dependent types in C

well, i personally believe that a specific subset of the most modern cpp standard is waaaay better than any other programming lancuage, but unfortunately there is so much old code around and too many people know older cpp standards. between c or cpp i still prefer c for personal reasons that are more emotional than technical, because for serious project i would probably use rust or golang (or both)

maybe I'm blind but I see c files

It is based on Antony Polukhin (active member of C++ standard's committee) words

by the way, what book do you suggest to learn the latest cpp standard? because the only entry level books are about older standards, and the only books referencing the new standards are books written for advanced people with experience with older versions of cpp

maybe I'm blind but I see c files

Well.. it's not an official implementation

welp

There's a good introduction to modern c++ (11 and 14 standard) by Scott Meyers — Effective modern c++

And there's a good book (as I heard) by Nicolai Josuttis on c++17

There's a good introduction to modern c++ (11 and 14 standard) by Scott Meyers — Effective modern c++

yes this book is actually good

There's a good introduction to modern c++ (11 and 14 standard) by Scott Meyers — Effective modern c++

It doesn't cover all of the new features of modern c++ But it covers a lot. And your code will become much clearer and less bug prone

yes this book is actually good

Thanks

Personally I like watching talks from CppCon, C++ Russia, etc

You are talking about C++, not C. They are very different languages. C++ is already 21 years old (by official standards).

I was talking about C, but I'd make the same claim about most languages -- including C++ moreso than C, as you said. We might have different perspectives of what mastery is, since it tends to be an ambiguous term.

C is maybe hard for a newbie, but is not as big as C++. And I think you can master C completely, but the only C is pretty useless because there're a lot of features beyond the standard — curl, pthread and others

i have its italian edition, but as i said it is one of those books designed to teach cpp11 amd part of cpp14 to people that van be considered experts in thr previous versions of the standard. imagine being a university professor, and you don't want to teach your students old and unsafe shit, what text book would you adopt?

nowadays to write a good and safe cpp you have to learn 20yo cpp, master it and then upgrade. for a newcomer it would be way easier (and productive) to just study another compiled and efficient language like rust

No The recommended way is to learn new stuff firstly and then dive into old shit

Recommended by many C++ experts*

Such as Bjarne Stroustrup

this is the best and most natural way to do that but tell me, does a beginner book that starts with the latest standard and a modern approach even exist?

Yes For example, C++ Primer Plus. But it covers C++11 stuff only. But for a beginner it is more than enough

Ok

can i ask a JAVA question here?

"* C/C++ discussion preffered (assembly also allowed), asking about other languages (or groups for other languages) right after joining will get you BANNED."

This is why it's important to read the Pinned Post and especially Rules of a group when you join.

copy that!

Well there is still some santa summoning machinery at play when manipulating strings *glares at the faucet interfaces* but we can live without selling thy soul to the devil

Tbh Learning Rust teaches you a lot in C++

In SHORT time

Because What is considered a good practice in C++, is a MUST in Rust

The compiler will prevent you from writing stupid things

Hi

if the input is placement then i want an output like e em eme emen emenp emenpl emenpla emenplac

just use bubble sort technique and take the starting no as middle of the string

Anyone knows about system calls? (linux)

Drunk some beer with these guys, good ones

On a serious note, how do you pass floating point numbers as arguments when adding a new system call? If someone has any idea

I'm running a code in terminal and it is giving me the desired result but when I try to submit it to hackerearth, it is not giving any output.

and not even producing any output on codechef ide

Well, where is the code?

I figured out something but want to guess whether it is right or not. I was using scanf and printf together with cin and cout. Should that cause any problem?

No

do i need to include other than iostream for scanf and printf?

it's a cpp code.

For using scanf and printf you use stdio.h ...iostream is for cout and cin

I used a non-standard library bits/stdc++.h and wondering whether it was in there.

what does fgets (input, 78, stdin) mean?

what does fgets (input, 78, stdin) mean?

char *fgets(char *str, int n, FILE *stream) Parameters str − This is the pointer to an array of chars where the string read is stored. n − This is the maximum number of characters to be read (including the final null-character). Usually, the length of the array passed as str is used. stream − This is the pointer to a FILE object that identifies the stream where characters are read from.

Guys, I am an absolute beginner in opengl.. I am learning a book called learnopengl . To draw a box he specified about 36 coordinates. Now I understand this perfectly. I want to draw a cylinder. What should I do. Should I specify all the coordinates or what exactly. Please help

Probably yes, you need to choose how presize it should be (how many verticles you need for the base), calculate the verticles and triangles.

Guys can you tell me to allocate dynamic memory in c for string
