This is the MOST clear explanation of r- and l- values I've ever heard or read

And sadly it is wrong on many points cause he does exactly what he said we should not do: Try to come up with his own definitions for l/r-values. For example assigning to r-values is allowed and normal. So 6:20 and on are by the standard wrong. C++11 defined that L-values have identity, rvalues can be moved from. And an object can fall into both categories - so called xvalue.

@@ABaumstumpf but I don't understand L-Values o R-Values. If I have for example: -> double&& rref = std::sqrt(36.0); is the same than: -> double rref=6; So the variable called "&& rref" I can use it as a normal variable. So whats the point with L-Values o R-Values??? at the end both variables are the same.

Everybody: blown mind Cherno: bored so he has to fiddle with paprika

Hey Yan, just wanted to say that thanks to you I got a final 95 grade in Systems Programming course in my university (Computer Science BSc). Thanks a lot! I'm 100% sure that you have the best programming series. period. As a side note, no one EVER got me this excited to code and study :)

I am not a programmer/software developer/coder. I'm not even sure I am referring to the right profession. I got here because I watched the reaction to unreal engine 5 and the ps5 (part 1). The way you explained things in those two videos got me hooked and now I'm watching a video on C++. I am a doctor and a lawyer and C++ is totally alien to me. But I found myself watching this video and "understanding" the main concepts you wanted to get across, which is a testament to how well you can grasp the important lessons and convey them to your audience. Made me want to study programming now (my wife would kill me). I went to a high school in the Philippines and back in 1982, it was one of the first high schools in my country which taught programming. We were taught how to program in "basic". A lot of my classmates became programmers and are now working in the US or have their own software companies. I went down a different path but if I had you as a teacher, who knows, I might now be working on dynamic global illumination and triangles, etc. You should try to fit in a teaching job in between your project development schedules. A lot of programmers/software developers/coders would benefit from your teaching and hopefully, someday come up with something special themselves. You would have the satisfaction of having a hand in shaping the minds of these future superstar developers.You can inspire them.

This video answered so many questions that had been shelved in the back of my mind. Thank you.

Your videos are amazing ! Thank you for taking the time and effort to share your knowledge!

Thanks Cherno! I always wondered what the compiler was referring to in terms of l and r values. Had no idea it was actually a pretty simple concept. As always, thank you!

Thank you Cherno for all this Amazing content. I've learned so much with your C++ series 👍😎❤️.

thanks cherno, i’ve always found this topic to be confusing, but you thankfully made it clearer

This was the clearest and most concise explanation of this topic that I have seen. Cheers!

Thank you for clarifying this topic. Well done.

Man, the video was great, it made lots of stuff more clear for me. Thank you for it!

Thank you so much! It was a really clean explanation and got all my questions answered :)

Thank you Cherno, your explanation why we use move semantics is so much better than what I have read from books. You have created a great playlist to understand C++ more.

I was so daunted by this going into it but your explanation was so good, thanks!

Thank you so much for your C++ videos! Love them!

I watched the ad of this videoon purpose bc you really deserve it :) thanks a lot for making this clear in my head!

Been watching C++ series for a while. Great stuff. Just an aside, my compliments to you and your partner (if you have one with you) for the very nice home you have. Seeing various furniture, and now the kitchen, you obviously have good taste and done some wonderful things with your home. (see? Some folks DO notice more than just your skills as a C++ tutor 😉 )

great job, I was looking for it a long time ago and after 1 month of research I finally got all of my answers, this is really good, I want you to explain it fully so other people can save their time :D Thanks a lot.

Great explanation as always! Thanks for making these videos!

Awesome video Cherno! Been coding with modern C++ for a few months now, but can FINALLY say I understand rvalues and lvalues! :D

Yan, you are a rock star! I just subscribed to your Patreon btw.. Look forward to all your knowledge about C++ and many other things too. Take care

Way more clear than the articles I've tried to read.. thanks a lot!!

I know about that topic and advanced C++ concepts like move semantics already, but have to admit you do a pretty good job at explaining stuff like that to beginners. Great work. Hope you explain one day about why passing parameters by value and letting the compiler chose what to do might be good for performance. There’s so much to learn about C++, that’s why I like it.

Definitely one of the best detailed explanation on l and r values in c++ Thanks!

Helps a lot!!. This is very clear explanation, especially the provided sample code example.

loving your C++ videos hope to see more of it

If I remember correctly, then Titus Winter (or was it Herb Sutter?) gave a pretty good talk at CppCon some time in the past where he talked about all kind of value types. Very simply spoken, he just said: Everything that has a name is a lvalue, everything that doesn't is a rvalue. In detail it sure gets more complicated than that, but I found that explanation quite intuituve and maybe it helps somebody.

I like STL's (Stephan T. Lavavej) explanation, if you can get its address, its an lvalue, otherwise its an rvalue. This covers cases where an lvalue might not have a name, like as the result of a getter function call.

I'm actually learning c++ since 2 months now and this kind of Videos about c++ makes me happy that I decided to pick up c++ . I started with c and python because it was recommended everywhere but with python it was like owning a iPhone or working with windows. It's very simple to use and intuitive but you just don't feel satisfied. C++ is like switching to android or linux. You are overwhelmed by the freedom and possibilities and it just feels amazing to learn all the things and feel the power of that systems. I hope that makes sense.

Perfect. Fantastic topic. This topic is very tied to move semantics as you already said. C++ is a great language because a programmer can manually do whatever he wants to reduce copying, manipulate with memory, do some optimization but if there is no awareness of that, using c++ has no much sense. It is like you want to clean your bathroom but with no special reason to do that. Good job!
