Signed Integers Considered Harmful

Explore the compelling argument for using unsigned integers as the default type in C++ programming for safe, secure, and performant systems. This conference talk by Robert Seacord at NDC TechTown 2022 challenges the common misconception that signed integers should be the default choice. Delve into the reasons why unsigned integers are preferable for representing values that cannot be negative, and learn how this approach can enhance code quality and system performance. Gain insights that will help you make more informed decisions about integer type selection in your C++ projects and potentially revolutionize your coding practices.
