C++ for Beginners - Running a program

The video tutorial explores different methods to launch a program and the significance of build configurations. It demonstrates launching a program via the user interface, command prompt, and IDE, highlighting the advantages and limitations of each method. The tutorial also delves into build configurations, explaining the differences between debug and release modes, and how they affect program size and debugging capabilities. The importance of using the appropriate configuration for development and release is emphasized, along with practical demonstrations of debugging and setting breakpoints.
