Cherno is very good, but I have also found a few others that you can check out... You can look at Jason Turner's, Javidx9's {OneLoneCoder}, and Bisqwit's channels. A little bit different but Ben Eater explains Computer Science and Computer Engineering very well too, and for any advanced math topics, 3Blue1Brown. I have found these to be some of my favorite channels. Also for C++ if you want an in-depth explanation of the most commonly used std library classes, containers and algorithms check out Bo Qian. For course study, Standford and MIT have great online videos of their courses... There are a few others that I like but they are specialized as they work with APIs such as Direct X, OpenGL, and Vulkan... Other channels pertain to hardware design directly and the process of designing an Instruction Set, Assembler and Assembly language for a custom CPU and its ISA (Instructure Set Architecture). Such as Bilkent Online Courses for their CS-224 course.

Not only are you engaging and interesting to listen to, but you make the concepts really easy to understand without oversimplifying or dropping necessary information. This should be mandatory viewing for anyone learning C++. How none of this was ever covered in my entire 4 year Computer Engineering program is beyond me.

would you recommend getting a CS or a CE degree?

[@jeffreyhymas6803]

@@YmanKZbin It mostly depends on what you want to do. Both will cover the basics; fundamental coding practices, algorithms and data structures, but they focus on different areas. CS is more about higher level concepts and pure software design including web development, machine learning/AI, and data science. CE is more low level, most CE degrees include electrical engineering elements and they focus a lot on computer architecture, digital design, and imbedded systems, a lot of C and C++. So if really depends on what you might want to do with your career. Bare in mind of course that's based on my experience, you should always look at what the programs at your school looks like.

[@팍준하]

summary: Compilation is the process where we convert our plain text of the cpp files into a machine code that is readable by the CPU. It occurs in several steps. The first step is 'preprocessing', which evaluates the proprocess statements. This is followed up py tokenizing, parsing and so on, which will create an abstract data tree(?). In cpp, files have no meaning, and this is to be compared with Javascript. The cpp compiler by default treats .h, .cpp files as the way they are, but we can specifically direct the compiler to treat any random file like any other random file. Therefore, we can just make a .cherno file, and make the compiler treat it like a cpp file. //To be honest, I didn't really get what he meant here. Going over the preprocessing statements, the most common statements are #include, #define, #prgma(?) and so on. #include basically results in the computer to find the file with that name and copy and paste its content into the current file. #define is followed by 2 arguments, and will replace all of the first argument found in the text into the second argument. To see what is going on during the preprocessing stage, we can change the property of our exe file so that it preprocesses to a file, and open the .i file with an text editor. After the preprocessing stage and a series of subsequent stages(cherno didn't cover obout these stages in these video), the compiler results in an obj file. Opening this in an text editor will show hexadecimal looking numbers, which we cannot understand. So we can manipulate the property of the project, click c/c++ --> output files --> assembly output, and change the option from no listing to assembly only listing. Compiling the file after this settings will result in a .asm file being created ind the debug folder, together with the other obj files. This is the readable format of the machine code, and Cherno uses this file to demonstrate how optimization option runs our code faster by reducing redundancy. So in our properties, we can enable optimation, which also requires to change the code generation-> basic runtime check should also be set to default. Cherno makes a 'log' function that returns the message that it receives, and *for no reason*, puts it in the middle of the 'multiply' function he created. Without the optimization, we can see in the .asm file that the compiler calls for the 'log'function for no reason, which slows down the computer by adding additional line to the code. With the optimization turned on and compiling the file again, the whole line that calls for the redundant 'log' line is just gone, because the compiler decides to delete the whole section since it understands that it is unnecessary.

[@rabiaedaylmaz1198]

Great videos, thank you so much. I have been watching your videos. For brief notes, i asked gpt "How the C++ Compiler Works": The C++ compiler transforms C++ source code into executable machine code through several stages. Understanding these stages can help you write more efficient and error-free code. Here’s an overview of how the C++ compiler works: ### 1. **Preprocessing** - **Input:** Source code files (`.cpp`, `.h`). - **Output:** Preprocessed source code. - **Actions:** - **Macro Expansion:** Expands all macros defined with `#define`. - **File Inclusion:** Inserts the content of the included header files (`#include` directives). - **Conditional Compilation:** Evaluates `#if`, `#ifdef`, `#ifndef`, and similar directives to include or exclude parts of the code. - **Removing Comments:** Strips out comments from the source code. ### 2. **Compilation** - **Input:** Preprocessed source code. - **Output:** Assembly code. - **Actions:** - **Syntax Analysis (Parsing):** Checks the code for syntactical correctness. Converts the code into an Abstract Syntax Tree (AST). - **Semantic Analysis:** Ensures the code adheres to the language rules and checks for semantic errors (e.g., type checking, variable declarations). - **Intermediate Code Generation:** Converts the AST into an intermediate representation (IR). - **Optimization:** Performs various optimizations on the IR to improve performance and reduce the code size. - **Code Generation:** Translates the optimized IR into assembly code for the target architecture. ### 3. **Assembly** - **Input:** Assembly code. - **Output:** Object code (machine code). - **Actions:** - Converts the human-readable assembly code into machine code instructions specific to the target CPU architecture. - Produces an object file (`.o` or `.obj`), which contains the machine code and additional information like symbol tables and relocation information. ### 4. **Linking** - **Input:** Object code files and libraries. - **Output:** Executable file. - **Actions:** - **Symbol Resolution:** Resolves references to functions and variables across different object files. - **Relocation:** Adjusts addresses within the code and data sections. - **Library Linking:** Includes necessary code from static libraries (`.lib` or `.a`) or dynamic/shared libraries (`.dll` or `.so`). - Produces the final executable file that can be run on the target system. ### 5. **Loading (Execution Time)** - **Input:** Executable file. - **Output:** Running process. - **Actions:** - The operating system loads the executable into memory. - Allocates memory for the program’s stack, heap, and data segments. - Resolves dynamic library references (if any). - Transfers control to the program’s entry point (usually the `main` function). ### Additional Details - **Error Handling:** At each stage, the compiler checks for errors and warnings, providing feedback to the programmer. - **Debugging Information:** The compiler can include debugging information in the object files to help with debugging. - **Optimization Levels:** Compilers often offer various optimization levels (e.g., `-O1`, `-O2`, `-O3` in GCC) to control the trade-off between compilation time and the performance of the generated code. ### Example of a Compilation Process For a file `main.cpp`, the typical compilation process using a command-line tool like `g++` might look like this: ```sh g++ -o main main.cpp ``` This command tells the `g++` compiler to preprocess, compile, assemble, and link `main.cpp` into an executable named `main`. By breaking down the compilation process into these stages, you can better understand how your C++ code is transformed into a running program and optimize or debug each part of the process effectively.

[@sangramjitchakraborty7845]

I see a lot of comments confused about why a binary file is being displayed as hexadecimal. You guys are confusing the data with the representation. Take the number 12 in decimal. 12 can be represented as 1100 in binary, and 'c' in hexadecimal. But the underlying data will still represent 12 counts from 0, however you choose to represent it. It's the same thing with the binary file. The underlying data is the same no matter how you choose to represent it. The file is called binary because it's not a text file, and the data does not have any sensible unicode or ascii representation, and because the underlying data is stored as binary on the disk. Text editors choose to show us the hexadecimal representation of the data because it's easier to read for a human than a series of 1s and 0s. It's also a lot compressed. 4 binary bits can be represented by one hexadecimal symbol.

Slight constructive feedback. Blink more. You seem to have done jump cuts to make it flow better (which is great) but you also appear to not blink at all during the intro thanks to it.

[@Sylfa]

Yeah, people tend to notice if someone talking to them is blinking too often or not often enough. Since you have bright lights in your eyes in a situation like this you tend to blink too often so you have to consciously avoid doing that, aaaand then you might go the opposite direction. It's not a big deal, but worth thinking of when recording videos.

I came here thinking it'll be a beginner course, but you have a talent to mix beginner and advenced notions, i think your videos are perfect for anyone who tries to learn or perfect their Cpp skills, truly anyone can learn something here, that's a video quality i've not seen very often, best cpp course out here imo (sry for my broken english, not native speaker and my last english class is getting a bit old ^^)

Darn, I have to say, this tut is really impressive. I like your information density and how you present said information. I just started the tut and I'm really looking forward to the rest of the videos in this playlist :D Thanks and have a good one

I would love to see Yan interview for some SDE job. The interviewer will be blown away by his clear explanations, and of course, his immense knowledge of the subject. Thanks man for sharing!
