Complete Modern C++ - noexcept

The video tutorial discusses changes in exception handling from C++98 to C++17. Initially, C++98 allowed functions to specify the types of exceptions they could throw, but this feature was not widely used and was deprecated in C++11 in favor of the noexcept keyword. C++17 removed the feature entirely. The tutorial also covers issues with function pointers and exception specifications, highlighting how C++17 addresses these by enforcing stricter type checks to prevent errors.
