  • Use this Modern scanf for C++

    It's faster than iostream and typed, unlike scanf. Think of {fmt} or std::format in C++20, but in another direction.

    1 project | news.ycombinator.com | 7 Jan 2025
    it's probably not chrome because they are using this third party library: (https://github.com/fmtlib/fmt). also, it might be that this sink is actually meant to write a message to the console but due to configuration options its a noop.

    Some people are noticing that println is very new. But there already is https://github.com/fmtlib/fmt and it has been there quite a long time.

    It was emulated using horrible macros: https://github.com/fmtlib/fmt/blob/8f5e07656e25ec64ec7c843f0.... IIRC some early versions of `std::tuple` did something similar.

    Continuation passing monads form the basis of a perfectly valid and usable software architecture and programming pattern.

    In the case of ostream and operator<<, this pattern reduces the number of intermediate objects that would otherwise be constructed.

    If you object to iostream on religious or stylistic grounds, there's always fmt which is more like Go or Python string interpolation.[0]
