Hey all!

Happy new C++ year! Thanks to Arno Schödl from think-cell we'll have a very interesting subject to Meetup for as they kindly offered to give the "From Iterators To Ranges" presentation for us.

•••The speaker: Dr. Arno Schödl•••

Arno holds a PhD in Computer Vision from the Georgia Institute of Technology (2002), and is founder and Technical Director of think-cell Software GmbH in Berlin. The company develops think-cell chart, a charting and presentation software written in more than 1 million lines of C++. Recently, think-cell became the key sponsor of the computer language group at DIN, the German Institute for Standardization, and is now participating in the C++ standardization effort at the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). The company prides itself in being managed by computer nerds and producing really beautiful code.

•••Talk abstract•••

Pairs of iterators are ubiquitous throughout the C++ library. It is generally accepted that combining such a pair into a single entity usually termed Range delivers more concise and readable code. Defining the precise semantics of such Range concept proves surprisingly tricky, however. Theoretical considerations conflict with practical ones. Some design goals are mutually incompatible altogether.

•••Location•••

IMC is hosting this event! The office is located in the D-Tower, on the 3rd Floor in the WTC of Amsterdam. Parking facilities are available (at own expense) but using public transport is recommended. The office is just a 5 minutes’ walk from train/metro station Amsterdam Zuid.

Please note: IMC will be able to host approx. 50 attendees with a small chance of not having enough seats if more people choose to attend. Looking at current numbers, probably a few people may have to stand/lean during the talk.

•••Schedule - 18th of January 2018•••

Details may change, but roughly we will open doors at 19:00 and have the talk start at 20:00.

07:00 PM – Socializing with food and drinks
07:50 PM – Intro
08:00 PM – From Iterators To Ranges
09.00 PM – More time to chat/drink/discuss
10.00 PM – The end

(If you cannot make it at 7.00 PM that’s not a problem but try to be there before the talk starts at 8.00 PM.)
