Structures and Namespaces | C++ For Java Devs Ep. 7

[@the-nomad-show]

I've loved this tutorial series so far, I think I've learnt more over the last two days watching it that I've done in a very long time. This episode had me a bit confused, though. I may have missed something in the beginning of the video, but you almost made it sound as if objects doesn't exist in C++, only Strucs. Thankfully my trusted friend ChatGTP let me know that objects do in fact exist in C++, just as I thought they should. That being said, I love this format. I've been working with Java for some 20 years and find most C++ courses unbearable. Not that they're bad, but because they're made for beginners and spend too muc time on basic concepts. So, yeah, this is great. Just what I needed to wrap my head around C++ well enough to start making use of it in Unreal.

Why, in printf(), do you use "%2.3f" for floats and not "%.3f"?

[@GamesWithGabe]

I probably started doing it thinking that the 2 would add padding (but it doesn't because if I have a precision of 3 then the number will always have at least 3 digits), and now I just kind of default to that haha. I guess you could do %5.2f which would give all the numbers 5 characters with spaces for padding if the number wasn't big enough
