C++ Typedef and type aliases explained 🙋‍♂️

#typedef #using
// Typedefs and type aliases
// typedef = reserved keyword used to create an additional name
// (alias) for another data type.
// New identifier for an existing type
// Helps with readability and reduces typos
// Use when there is a clear benefit
// Replaced with 'using' (work better w/ templates)

[@BroCodez]

#include
//typedef std::string text_t;
//typedef int number_t;
using text_t = std::string;
using number_t = int;
int main(){
text_t firstName = "Bro";
number_t age = 21;
std::cout

[@BasPower12]

I have an error that says conversation from 'int' to non scalar type 'number_t' {aka 'std::__cxx11::basic_string'}

[@BasPower12]

I'm using VS code BTW

[@nuamanshabir6122]

I always used to use typedef for renaming structures when i was learning DSA basics in Clanguage, it just made the declarations of node pointers so easy.Great video mate🥰🥰

[@moikennersan1804]

Man why you have so few views? you deserve more views

[@areotaco5044]

Right? I'm guessing because it's a brand new series. He also has this video unlisted though so that's def tanking his viewership.

@@areotaco5044 By any chance in the 5 months are you at least ok in c++?

Because most of the viewers never leave likes and comments and even subscribe.

[@GlobalGymMusic]

Older Bro: "Are you using typedef?" ☹
Younger Bro: "No, bro. I am using using." 🙂

[@vedsur8610]

I'll use both versions of syntax. If I want to to call double float_t, I'll do it these two ways.
// First way
typedef double float_t;
// Second way
using float_t = double;

[@yellowhellow-wi9gi]

thank youu

[@masterofcraftmoc827]

Do C++ they said, it's easy as python they said, no confusion whatsoever they said.

[@KrimsonKloud]

I copied your code and it didn't work. I got several error messages, some saying 'expected nested-name-specifier before text_t and number_t'. Also saying its not declared. Wtf.

[@JayadevNarayanan-ug1vx]

Bro this happens when I try to use using.
using.cpp:8:15: warning: alias declarations are a C++11 extension [-Wc++11-extensions]
using xt= std::string;
^
1 warning generated.
Any fixes? Tried many online, nothing works.
