| | Generic Programming: Generating part of programs Introduction Generic Programming: Programming with generic parameters to avoid unnecessary code duplication and encourage code reuse. Polymorphism is also another technique to solve code reuse Puts implicit constraints on the generic types that are to be fulfilled by concrete types. template T adder(T LHS, T RHS) { return LHS + RHS; } struct Foo { inv Val = 0; } Foo f = adder(Foo{}, Foo{}): In this code snippet, we assume that Foo meets the requirement tha...

| | Just like regular function parameters, template parameters can also have default parameters. For class templates, this behaves mostly just like default function arguments: if you pass fewer template arguments than required, default template arguments are used to fill the remaining places. However, for function templates, it gets more complicated as template parameters for functions can be deduced by the normal function arguments. This leads to some interesting side-effects. In particular, default argumen...
