Do they mention fluent x86-64 or arm assembly? Because there are many ISAs where no C++ compiler will be able to generate better code than hand optimal code by a fluent programmer.
- fluffything 7y agoExactly, when the only compiler available for an ISA is gcc 2.9... manually writing the assembly doesn't sound that bad anymore. C++11? There isn't even a C++03 compiler for those..
