The Importance of Template Code in C++

10 plates are one of these things that I see people have a misconception with they used to be horrible. Modern, we've got examples of modern template code that will outperform C. They're also new tools coming along. The biggest downside is the build times. If you use lots of templates, then those build times go up. And it's partly due to the way C builds do dollar-p,. don't realize is that obviously when we're building in parallel and only compiling at a source file - so this whole idea in TDD has been around for some time.
