Multi-Paradigm Programming with Modern C++ - Class and Structs

The video tutorial discusses the differences and similarities between classes and structs in C, emphasizing the importance of using classes when data invariants are present. It explores the logger class implementation, highlighting the use of the pimple idiom and singleton pattern. The tutorial provides guidelines for designing classes, focusing on error checking and the separation of responsibilities. It also explains the rationale behind using public and free functions, aiming to reduce coupling and maintain a clean interface. The video concludes with a brief mention of upcoming topics on constructors and destructors.
