Why Iterators Got It All Wrong — And What We Should Use Instead
Offered By: CppNow via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore a thought-provoking conference talk that challenges the conventional understanding of iterators in C++ programming. Delve into the fundamental flaws of the iterator concept and discover why it may not be as robust as previously thought. Learn about the distinction between elements and boundaries in sequences, and how this impacts iterator behavior. Examine a proposed solution that not only addresses the inherent problems but also leads to clearer code and fewer mistakes. Gain insights from Arno Schödl, an experienced software architect and computer scientist, as he presents a compelling case for rethinking our approach to iterators and introduces a potentially superior alternative for working with sequences in C++.
