An Overview of Standard Ranges
The ranges revolution is nearly upon us! C++20 will include concept-enabled, range-based versions of all the standard algorithms you know and love, as well as new “views” which can transform the way you write code. In this talk we’ll offer an overview of the ranges features currently in the C++20 draft, with examples of how you can use them to reduce verbosity, avoid bugs and improve the correctness of your code, and in some cases get better performance. We’ll also cover the currently-available ranges implementations that you can use today, without having to wait for the next version of the standard.
If you've heard the buzz around ranges and are wondering what they'll bring and how they'll benefit your code-base, then this is the talk for you.

Probably the best introduction (video or blog) to C++ 20 Ranges I have seen! Great talk Tristan.

[@SkittleNibble]

Awesome stuff, had only seen view adaptors in the few posts about ranges - so understanding all the other things around it was a super good surprise!

[@TheMR-777]

Thank you for such a Great Talk about it. I was also hopeful to see the comment of Eric Niebler here

[@KhalilEstell]

Fantastic overview. I can't wait for ranges! So cool!

[@ericschiesser743]

6:55 "...barring an absolute disaster..." *COVID-19 happens* And yet, it is in the standard :)

[@mmocny]

Fantastic overview! Thanks.

[@fzort]

Excellent overview, thank you!

[@syntaxed2]

Arent concepts like Rust traits?

[@siyachieng666]

Well, time goes on, C++ learning curve gradually become ridiculously difficult for beginners.🤣

[@keshkek]

You need only to learn about ranges library conventions. It's about few hours. And this you need to do one time in three years (C++17/20/23 etc). So you want to tell learning python standard libraries is about 30 years or something?
