Love the effort you put in with the slideshow and everything, great video!

[@NevenaPerovic]

What a great tutorial!! :) :) Thanks a lot! I wish I had such detailed classes once when I started learning c++! Cheers!

[@DownloadableFox]

Yooo. This video is like super old however I really want to thank you for it. I was really having problems understanding how headers worked and I had a lot of problems inside my code because of the lack of guards. Seriously thanks!

21:17 how do c++ know that when u wtite Rectangle(sideLen, sideLen) u actually mean the width and height? İ mean, u havent declared anything called "sideLen" in rectangle, so it may be anything, why width and heigth. İ would really appreciate if u helped me with this question, cuz i'm a lil bit confused right now 😅

Awesome to know about #pragma once. always wondered why it showed up when I created a new file lol. Also, I added the #ifndef and #define in all my .h files. still having issues. I'm using a function template so the error I'm getting is function template has already been defined. :(

How to Compiler multiple files in vscode?

[@mandarparkhi3708]

very useful. Thanks.

[@zeinabrahmani963]

Thank you. Could you please make a similar tutorial for VSCode as well?

[@luiswittrock223]

There is literally nothing that would change using VSCode or any other text editor. You still just have to create new files .h or .cpp and write your code into it and than compile.

[@zeinabrahmani963]

@@luiswittrock223 Thanx for your reply. Yes, the creation of the .h and .cpp files are exactly the same. What I found difficult in VS Code is the configuration of the .json files, i.e. how can I make the VS Code find these .h and .cpp files when the files are put in different folders. For example, I have a repository that puts the .cpp files in several folders and it's hard to set the path for all these .cpp files one by one.

[@luiswittrock223]

@@zeinabrahmani963 I think in that case it's easier to just use a makefile.

[@zeinabrahmani963]

@@luiswittrock223 Yes, that's what I am doing now. But I really wish to be able to debug the codes in VS code. Thanx.

Might want to explain what "#pragma once" is about for us beginners. ... resuming watching.

This helped: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pragma_once

[@AiswaryaRamesh-r5t]

Can you please provide this code

[@herootaku5682]

hey, why rectangle.h/circle.h are included in main.cpp but not rectangle.cpp/circle.cpp

[@lucianoribeiro9096]

because is this the correct way. In general, you as a client don't have acess of the implementation of the .cpp of a class, only the things that it does, that are listed in .hpp. In other words, you need to know what it does and not how it does.

[@DiegoJaraPalomino]

Very useful, thanks. There is no tutorial in spanish.

[@shibasispatel6624]

Thanks for making this awesome video. It could have been better if you would have included namespaces.

[@shybeeee]

tks alott

[@arpitpatel5814]

In case may be helpful to those who are new: for VSCode in terminal window (paste and press enter) cd "f:\prac5\" ; if ($?) { g++ main.cpp Shape.h Circle.cpp Rectangle.cpp Square.cpp -o main} ; if ($?) { .\main } Note : f:\prac5\ - Replace with your folder address

[@UvUtkarsh]

but I don't know that why in my case it is not happening.
