Stack Implementation in C, C++, Java, Python and C#: Arrays, Linked Lists and the Standard Library
Stacks in five languages, built two ways and measured: memory per element, reallocations per million pushes, empty-pop behaviour and four common bugs.
C++ Programming
Personal Organizer
NeoMem allows you to store and organize all kinds of information in a cross between a word processor and database. The interface is similar to Windows Explorer, except that instead of dealing with files on a hard disk you deal with objects in a file. It can be used to store to do lists, books, website passwords, addresses, account information, and collections of all kinds. You can define your own classes for items that you want to store information about, and define properties for those objects. Each object can also store formatted text in a simple word processor view.
Encapsulation in C++: Private Data, Invariants and Interfaces That Survive Change
Encapsulation in C++ with tested code: invariants, access specifiers, getter pitfalls, safe resource ownership, and how Python’s approach compares.
Functions in C++: Declarations, Parameters, Overloading and Modern Techniques
How C++ functions receive arguments and what each way costs, why overloads and defaults fail to compile, and the dangling return that builds anyway.
STL Containers in C++: How to Choose the Right One
The complexity table says list wins. Measured, vector was 30 times faster with the same search. A selection guide for the C++ container library.
Pointers in C++ — From Raw Pointers to Smart Pointers (Complete Tutorial)
A unique_ptr is 8 bytes — exactly the same as a raw pointer. Pointers from declaration to ownership, with every claim compiled and measured.
Advanced Concepts and Patterns in Encapsulation
While grasping the fundamentals of encapsulation is crucial, delving into advanced concepts and patterns elevates code design and maintainability further in C++. In this article, we will explore sophisticated aspects of encapsulation that go beyond the basics and provides you with a deeper understanding of its applications and impact on software development.
Exception Handling in C++: try/catch, noexcept, RAII and std::expected
Exception handling in C++ with tested code: what unwinding really cleans up, safe catching, RAII, noexcept, and when std::expected is the better tool.
Operator Overloading in C++: Canonical Signatures, Member vs Friend, and the C++20 Spaceship Operator
Operator overloading in C++ with compiled examples: canonical signatures, member or non-member, defaulted C++20 comparisons, and when not to overload.
std::string in C++ — The Complete Guide (with string_view and std::format)
Fifteen characters cost nothing; sixteen cost a heap allocation. A measured guide to std::string, string_view, and where the copies come from.
C++ Templates Tutorial — Function Templates, Class Templates, and Concepts
One definition, three functions in the binary. A measured guide to templates, from deduction through concepts and the errors they produce.
Object-Oriented Programming in C++: Classes, Encapsulation, Inheritance and Polymorphism
How C++ does OOP differently from Java and Python, with one program that uses all four pillars and the slicing and override mistakes that still compile.
