Back to Basics: Standard Library Containers in C++ - Lecture

Explore the fundamentals of Standard Library Containers in C++ through this comprehensive conference talk from CppCon 2022. Delve into the Standard Template Library (STL) components, focusing on containers, algorithms, and iterators. Learn to distinguish between sequence and associative containers, understanding their use cases and performance implications. Discover why std::array and std::vector are essential for sequence containers, and why std::unordered_map is often the go-to choice for associative containers. Gain insights into various container types, including vectors, linked lists, and maps, while examining their performance characteristics. Benefit from Rainer Grimm's expertise as he guides you through best practices for modern C++ container usage, helping you make informed decisions in your programming projects.
