Скачать или смотреть C++ type deduction - Part 1: Template and auto type deduction

In this Bits of Q tutorial we talk about type deduction and why it is getting ever more important in modern C++. This video is part of a two part mini-series where we explain everything you need to know about this topic. In the first part we discuss template and auto type deduction. This also covers the rules for deduction of forwarding references.

If you are not familiar with lvalues and rvalues, I recommend first watching my tutorial on move semantics:
   • C++ Move Semantics  

For some background information on forwarding references and what problem they were designed to solve, check out my video on Perfect Forwarding:
