Better C++ Ranges

Explore advanced concepts in C++ Ranges through this conference talk from CppNow 2021. Delve into think-cell's 20-year experience developing a custom range library that extends beyond the C++ standard while maintaining compatibility. Learn about innovative approaches to improve efficiency, including a new concept surpassing iterators, self-contained range adaptors with lazy evaluation, and internal iteration techniques. Discover how customized return values can enhance code expressiveness and eliminate iterator end checks. Examine the application of these range features in text formatting, enabling lazily evaluated strings with optimized compile-time expansion. Gain insights from Arno Schödl, an experienced software architect and computer scientist, on creating more efficient and expressive C++ code using advanced range techniques.
