Introducing Lazy Evaluation and Proxy Objects
Explore how lazy evaluation defers computations until needed and how proxy objects hide complex optimizations within C++ libraries. Understand the benefits of these techniques for performance and code clarity in real-world applications.

First and foremost, the techniques used in this chapter are used to hide optimizations in a library from the user of that library. This is useful because exposing every single optimization technique as a separate function requires a lot of attention and education from the library user. It also bloats the code base with many specific functions, making it hard to ...
