oh my god the first person to explain without advanced word thanku caleb i ca always count on u

[chadwickcodes]

Wow, knowing Java really helps when learning C++

[iyedkahwech]

it get difficult from vid 89, thank you a lot caleb your videos really helpful

[_SabiqunnaharBrinty]

Thank you so much. I'm your student from Bangladesh. your video helps me a lot.

cant we just instantiate the static member inside the constructor? isn't it when the class is invoked or called we allocate memory that includes the members?

Currently in this chapter (14) in the Gaddis Text for C++ in class. Your tutorials have just been discovered by me and they’re helping! Quick question for you: I define which constructor I wish to use at any given object declaration in main right? I can do something like className obj; or className obj(var type/name parameter) etc.. and this is all based on the use case and what my program is being meant to do correct? I am having trouble understanding why the hell I need to make multiple constructors when I can just continually use setter methods on multiple objects .

Inline? More like in time...to help a lot of people before their exams (judging from the comments). Thanks so much for this wonderful tutorial series!

My understanding for now is that
both default constructor and custom constructor can be defined in the same file
but we cannot instantiate s class into multiple objects using both custom constructor and default constructor in a main function.
Is that correct?

I am confused about the destructor,
At 6:25 although you haven't call the destructor explicitly, it has executed the cout and written "Destructor"
but why not executed the user_count-- statement same way? Why do we have to call the destructor explicitly?

Noob here. When he minimized the class, my jaw hit the floor. I've been doing so much scrolling.

In a multi file setup, where would one define the static variable from a class, would it be in the main.cpp, or the class.cpp? My testing shows the app works either way. It doesn't work if I define the static variable in the class.h file, which may make sense as a header file is normally used to declare items, not define them. If I had to choose, I would put it in the main.cpp, but would like to do it according to best practice...Thx IanQ

When I run
cout << User::get_user_count << endl; in Visual Studio

it outputs what I think is user_count's address (008617E4) instead of its integer value. Any idea why?

your explanation on why u need to declare static outside the class didn't make any sense man. when u make a new object to the class, it should recognize the static variable also. there's no reason for it not to
