I like how you explain straight to the point. No time wastage :) Less time searching and more time learning. Keep up the good work

[@NOGAMENOLIFEGAMING]

Thank you sir, can you please upload presentations about :
-linked lists
-trees
-graphs

[@Jodrie]

Thank you, this made it so much clearer than anything else I’ve seen!😄

[@Omer-iv1wx]

Interesting observation is that because the char value printed is the equivalent character encoding of the value stored in the first byte of memory allocated to store the union instance, you can print characters by making the integer value % 256 correspond to a character encoding. For example, the value of 65 in ASCII is 'A', which is why the first example resulted in printing 'A'. This can also be achieved if var.a = 65 + 256 * n, where n is any integer

please upload videos on nested structures Sir.🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@736939]

ok, but if we create union as an object in the heap like: abc* var = new abc() then do they share the same memory?

[@AbdelbariBenKamel]

Hello, thank you for the informative video. It has proven to be quite useful. However, I'm curious whether the size of an element type remains consistent across all programming languages, and whether processors require the same number of cycles to access variables regardless of the language used. Could you clarify this point?

[@chingkhei_thoudam]

Why the value of a is printed? Isn't the memory of a be overwritten by b as b executed later?

[@AshuSingh-us5tp]

It's a request to this channel..
Please upload lectures regarding "design and analysis of algorithm" (DAA) as it's my 5th sem subject & exams are near (approx 3 months) . It's a cs subject as well as gate's too.. Please help.. Sir

[@user-bu8mg7uq3s]

thank you

[@exoticcoder5365]

Useful

[@hadireg]

I'm an old time C programmer, I totally understand what unions are and how all its members share the same memory location and its size is the size of the biggest member in the union. the remaining question is WHY for? never found a convincing answer... I had sometimes a need to create unions, and for my case it was ONLY to be used as a temporary "pseudo structure" and to manipulate a member in temporary way taking advantage of the pointer's addressing technique. I still don't see any motivation to their creation at the first place other than what I used them for.

[@purubhargava8096]

bro if you got answer plz reply back as i also thought oh=f same thing plz reply

[@TheUniqueCoder]

Please make seris on c++

[@saikrishnathota5972]

Please upload network theory classes sir

[@dhaneshprabhu72]

Can union have a struct as it's member

[@sz4746]

Does the example work only on little endian machines? Because for large endian machines, 1 is like 0x 00 00 00 01 instead of 0x 01 00 00 00

[@cyrilemeka6987]

There was nothing vague in this video. Continue the good work

[@indian3451]

please do on Dynamic Memory Allocation

[@anonemoose102]

like how your name's jus indian lol

[@shubhamkandekar4723]

can a pointer be a union member?

[@amwamique]

Arrow operator is also known as Reference operator.

[@llll-qz9kr]

Disadvantages of union
You can use only one union member at a time.
All the union variables cannot be initialized or used with varying values at a time.
Union assigns one common storage space for all its members.
seems basically a union is = one of the variables in the union
rather than actually being or holding all the variables setup for the union, it gets the memory for the biggest type
and then depending on which variable you're accessing, it will basically be only that variable - so when you change the value
the other variables values change as well, cuz they're really all the same, stored in the biggest types amount of memory and address
but the depending on what you're working with, it will work as if it is that type..
like struct != a & b & c .. struct = a | b | c .. close? lul
.. I think I got close at least :)

[@sagarraj4521]

What if var.a = 129 ? I mean to say what will be displayed for char if no ASCII corresponding is not there...?

i dont know why there are so many indians doing tutorials about c, i dont want to be mean, i dont hate them or something but i just cant understand they re accent and its anoying, but honestly this is the first person that taught me something, and i could understand him,so thank you!

[@zububabu8249]

Dude if u feel it's annoying them keep walking instead of commenting about it it's not something one can help be greatfull that they are teaching u something in detail that too

[@zububabu8249]

Not everyone can speak multiple languages an average indian speak 4-5 language so yeah u can't have perfect accent and tend to do grammatical mistake

And we have created such wonderful videos in English for free for you assholes..... And you still have the problem with Accent .... Shame on you...can't you just adjust with our content you dickhead ...... We could have also set international Restrictions over our videos.....
