ACCU 2024 Session Preview: How DLang Improves my Modern C++ and Vice Versa by Mike Shah
Kevin Carpenter from @cppevents sits down with Mike Shah to discuss his upcoming talk for the ACCU conference, titled How DLang Improves my Modern C++ and Vice Versa
Join Kevin and Mike for a sneak preview of this much anticipated session for ACCU 2024!
How DLang Improves my Modern C++ and Vice Versa
Scheduled for Friday 19th April during ACCU conference 2024!
The D programming language (DLang) is a multi-paradigm language (like C++) developed to solve real software engineering problems. DLang has a rich history since its inception in 2001, and continues to be an actively evolving memory-safe language used in industry. In this talk, I will discuss how learning and using the D language has directly benefited my use and learning of C++ and vice versa. We'll look at the evolution of both C++ and Dlang, and see how each language has borrowed from each other during their most recent evolution in the past decade. Throughout the talk, I will provide side-by-side code comparisons showing idiomatic ways to complete tasks in D alongside C++ code examples. The goal of this talk however is not to pit one language against the other, but rather to show how to use each language to its strengths and learn how to become a better programmer. Audience members are expected to be familiar with Modern C++, but are not expected to have any prior D programming experience.
About The ACCU Conference:
The ACCU Conference is the annual conference of the ACCU membership, but is open to any and all who wish to attend. The tagline for the ACCU is "Professionalism in Programming", which captures the whole spectrum of programming languages, tools, techniques and processes involved in advancing our craft. While there remains a core of C and C++ - with many members participating in respective ISO standards bodies - the conference, like the organisation, embraces other language ecosystems and you should expect to see sessions on C#, D, F#, Go, Javascript, Haskell, Java, Kotlin, Lisp, Python, Ruby, Rust, Swift and more. There are always sessions on TDD, BDD, and how to do programming right.
The ACCU Conference is a conference by programmers for programmers about programming.
