Value Oriented Programming Part 1 - You Say You Want to Write a Function
Explore value-oriented programming in C++ through this conference talk from CppNow 2023. Delve into the concept of writing functions with a focus on value semantics, inspired by Sean Parent's influential keynote from BoostCon 2007. Learn how to evolve your coding practices, challenge traditional approaches to member functions, and consider alternative solutions for parameter handling and state management. Discover techniques for improving code quality, enhancing readability, and optimizing performance through value-oriented design principles. Gain insights from Tony Van Eerd, an experienced C++ developer and committee member, as he presents a creative and engaging approach to teaching these concepts, drawing parallels with popular music lyrics to illustrate key points.
