Summary
In this landmark 200th episode, Jason kicks off a special five-part educational series on C++ lambdas. This first chapter provides an introduction to lambda fundamentals, outlines six previous episodes to watch for understanding lambdas (covering basics, implementation details, stateful lambdas, inheritance, and function pointer conversions), and includes exercises to deepen understanding. The episode emphasizes how lambdas serve as a window to understanding C++ more broadly, with exercises focusing on practical implementation and understanding compiler transformations.
