Complete Modern C++ - std::string_view - II

The video tutorial discusses the use of string and string view in C++. It provides examples of how string view can be used to optimize memory usage by avoiding unnecessary string object construction. The tutorial covers three examples: a pretty print function, a combined name function, and a person class. It highlights when string view is appropriate and when it can lead to issues like dangling pointers. The video concludes with a recap of best practices for using string view, emphasizing that it is not a replacement for std::string but a non-owning view of a character sequence.
