Complete Modern C++ - Deprecated and Removed Features

The video tutorial discusses the removal of certain features in the C-17 standard, such as the register storage class, increment operator on bool types, and trigraphs. It explains the deprecation of exception specifications and the replacement of auto pointers with unique and shared pointers. Additionally, it covers updates to library functions, including the replacement of random shuffle and bind functions. These changes reflect advancements in compiler technology and aim to improve code efficiency and safety.

What was the purpose of the 'register' storage class in earlier C standards?

• To store variables in memory

• To ensure variables are stored on the stack

• To allocate variables dynamically

• To provide a hint for optimization by storing variables in a register

Why were trigraphs used in older C compilers?

• To improve memory management

• To enhance security features

• To support special characters not available on older keyboards

• To optimize code execution

What replaced exception specifications in modern C standards?

• Noexcept specifier

• Finally blocks

• Try-catch blocks

• Error codes

What is the main issue with 'auto_ptr' that led to its deprecation?

• It had no ownership semantics, leading to potential bugs

• It was too slow in execution

• It was not compatible with modern compilers

• It was too complex to use

Which function has replaced 'random_shuffle' in modern C standards?

• Randomize

• Permute

• Shuffle

• Sort
