Python as C++’s Limiting Case

Explore the relationship between Python and C++ in this insightful conference talk from code::dive 2018. Delve into Python's memory model, derived from modern C++ conventions pushed to their limits of safety and generality. Examine the trade-offs between correctness and performance in Python's language design, and understand the choices Python programmers face when needing to approach C++-like performance. Discover how the C++ community is increasingly adopting conventions reminiscent of Python. Gain valuable insights into the evolving landscape of programming languages and the convergence of design principles across different paradigms.
