UCL for Code in Research10/10 C++: Wrapping it upIn this last episode of the companion podcast for the C++ course at UCL, I invited both Klaus Iglberger and Marc Hartung (Dive, Berlin) to go through some aspects of parallel computing. But also to look a little bit ahead of what's in store for C++ in future standards. And how the language may help you in your career.Links:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NReDubvNjRg&list=PLY_qIufNHc2-Dk9IVNtgoF4uhKRszjJPz Cpp Conference (Cpp Con) Back to basics YouTube 2023https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VRGRTvfOxb4&list=PLY_qIufNHc2950NLOeUFuO0DsqjAZ6cG0 Cpp Conference...2025-03-3138 minUCL for Code in Research7/10 Oh please, make it faster...performance in C++How can we measure the performance (run-time, memory usage etc) of our C++ code? And what does performance mean, anyway. These and other questions are the topic of this episode - with my guest Klaus Iglberger, C++ engineer, tutor and mentor.

Klaus Iglberger and I also touch on design patterns and briefly what other programming paradigms exist apart from object oriented programming (OOP).Linkshttps://medium.com/javascript-scene/the-forgotten-history-of-oop-88d71b9b2d9f The forgotten history of OOPhttps://medium.com/@ryan_forrester_/struct-inheritance-in-c-comprehensive-guide-2027689d10ed structs and classeshttps://www.enterpriseintegrationpatterns.com/index.html Enterprise Integration Patterns by Gregory Hohpehttps://martinfowler.com...2025-02-1933 minUCL for Code in Research4/10 On PolymorphismInheritance, templates, function overloading - they all fall into the category of polymorphism in programming.

CppCastType Erasure, SIMD-Within-a-Register and moreEduardo Madrid joins Phil and Timur. Eduardo talks to us about the Zoo libraries, including his advanced type-erasure library, as well as the SWAR library which simulates ad-hoc SIMD within a register. We also discuss how he has taken inspiration and cues from the worlds of Biology and Physics to arrive at new thinking around software development, design and architecture.

He spent most of that time in the games industry; many of the games he worked on used to be fondly remembered but now he’s accepted that they are probably mostly forgotten.
