= Constexpr = Constexpr is this great C++11 feature that marks a value or function to be known/executed at compile time. This is great for things likes config.hpp files, compile time string hashes, and more. == Example == {{{C++ unsigned int constexpr const_hash(char const *str){ return *input ? static_cast(*input) + 33 * const_hash(input + 1) : 5381; } void main(){ constexpr char* const_str = "12345"; switch(const_hash(const_str)){ case const_hash("12345"): std::cout << "Found 12345\n"; break; case const_hash("54321"): std::cout << "Found 54321\n"; break; } } }}} Switch statements can only accept integers in C/C++, however using this we can convert compile time strings into integers. This is wonderful for making code more readable, without relying to much on C macros, which are not type aware. [[C++]]
