C++ 20 (2a) New Features - Rationale Behind New Comparison Operator

The video introduces the new C++ comparison operator, known as the spaceship operator, and explains its syntax and nickname. It discusses the challenges of making a struct comparable to other types, highlighting the boilerplate code required in C++. The video addresses compilation issues when comparing structs to integers and using static asserts. It then presents the C++20 solution, which simplifies the process by reducing boilerplate code and allowing the compiler to generate necessary implementations. The video concludes with a preview of future content on using the spaceship operator.
