C++ Standard Template Library in Practice - Stream States

The video tutorial explains different stream states in programming, such as good, bad, EOF, and fail states. It discusses how errors can affect streams and how to manage these states using functions like set state and clear. A practical example demonstrates handling stream states in code, including checking file existence and recovering from fail and EOF states. The tutorial concludes with a preview of the next topic on low-level IO functions.
