    The benefits of unique pointers are not to only allocate something once, it's more about making sure a resource is only deallocated once as it will call the underlying objects destructor when it goes out of scope together with the fact that it can only have a single owner.

    "using namespace std;" is kind of an anti-pattern. It's almost like saying "import *" in Python. You code becomes more terse, but now you can't tell if a keyword is builtin or from the namespace (or from the other namespace you 'used'/imported). And never put this in a header file, it'll hose anyone who includes your header.

      He is "keeping it usual" by calling it the shift left operator. Given that it is overloadable, its meaning in any particular context could be anything, but its usual meaning is shift left, which is therefore the best name for the operator overall.

    • @NyscanRohid

      But it _is_ the bitwise left shift operator. You might not call it that, but many C++ programmers do. Bitwise operations are the original purpose of the shift operators. The only reason they're called stream operators after the fact is because the developers of std::iostream overloaded them for covenience.

    std::unique_ptr ptrJeff(new Human);
    When using the new keyword, allocate is still done to the heap like a normal pointer. Consider this instead:
    std::unique_ptr ptrJeff = std::make_unique();
    Or, even:
    auto ptrJeff = std::make_unique();
    This is especially important for shared pointers. For unique pointers, the only difference in the end is exception handling.
    Also, smart pointers need #include .
    Another thing to keep in mind is that these were added in c++11, so it might even be a good idea to specify. -std=c++11 or later.

    • @isodoubIet
      @isodoubIet Год назад

      make_unique also allocates on the heap. There's no difference there. The main difference between using make_unique and unique_ptr(new x) is with exceptions: if you have an expression with two unique_ptr(new bla) subexpressions, the order of evaluation is unspecified which means you might run two "new"s and then the two unique_ptr constructions. If the second new throws an exception, the first one will leak. This may have been fixed with the evaluation order changes in c++17 but I don't see a point in risking it.
      make_unique also has a teachability benefit in that you can give a blanket guidelines like "never use the keyword new" and it'll be valid every time.

      Instead, they start working in some higher level language, and the code just “runs”. They become happy, but when the code is used in real-time scenarios, they get badly failed.
      And it gets extremely difficult, and complicated to trace down that error, they made in their logic.

      I like python too, but i got so adapted to pointers that i have to reconfigure my brain when using python...
      I used to think those things were confusing until you get used to it and in fact it is super simple...

    This was my first introduction to programming. My parents signed me up for a free coding course, learning C++, and a quite rigorous one at that (homework and everything). I was in third grade.
    The result was what I can only describe as a mild form of PTSD, where I would cry every time I talked about how I didn't understand programming. This lasted for multiple years; only recently has that trauma worn off enough to where I can have an interest in programming again. And yes, typing that semicolon in the previous sentence was still painful.

    • @DFPercush
      @DFPercush 2 года назад

      There are performance reasons as well. make_unique and make_shared construct the object in place, rather than creating a temporary object and then having to move or copy it. The arguments to make_shared are the same as the constructor for that class. This also applies to emplace_back and emplace_front in various containers, as opposed to push_back or push_front which will have to move/copy the object.
      smart pointers will still delete the memory if you assign a raw pointer to them, as they own that pointer now. But as Votlu points out, there might be a leak if there's an exception between your "new" and the return of make_unique. You also have to be sure you're not using that raw pointer any more after you give ownership to the smart pointer.

    @trofchik9488 2 года назад +24

    Ok, I have couple gripes with this video.
    1) Don't declare "using namespace std;" globally. It can cause ambiguities.
    2) std::unique_ptr doesn't do what you say. Firstly, raw pointer is simply a variable that contains address to data of a certain type. int*, for example, points to date with type of int, char* to data with type of char, etc... std::unique_ptr is a wrapper over raw pointer that is deallocated on stack (at the end of {} block). When end of the {} block is reached destructor of class std::unique_ptr is being called which in turn calls destructor of an object the std::unique_ptr pointer was pointing at. When it comes to raw pointer only the variable that contains the address would be deallocated while data at said address would remain with no reference to access it (provided that data was created with "new" and assigned to pointer or created outside of this {} block).
    Now think of ICopyable in C#. Now imagine that this property is explicitly deleted inside std::unique_ptr class. That means that the pointer can no longer be passed by copy into anything thus guaranteeing that one and only one reference to given piece of data exists. If you still want to pass it around you can use std::move but it will null the pointer at place where you passed it from.
    Alternatively if you want to pass pointer to data around you can use std::shared_ptr which again is wrapper over raw pointer but it can be copied and atomically counts the amount of references to data across the program. Once the count reaches zero data is being deallocated.

    Really like your work man. Just took a course in C++ and this video really did good in condensing all that information and more. I was wondering though, what are you using to quickly fill in your code? I see you're not even typing, just stuff is appearing that seems faster than any ctrl+c ctrl+v I've seen.

    Great video 🔥
    I learned C ++ at university and still believe it's the father of all modern languages. If you're able to program in C ++ then you can program in all languages

    I can feel the struggle of trying to cram every aspect of C++ in 100 seconds. Btw, "using namespace" and "new" mixed with smart pointers made me scream in pain.

    don't start using "using namespace std;", just get used to writing the namespace as well, it also deepens you relationship and natural understanding with/of them
