I remember how ridiculously long the waitlist was for that class, even for a course in the CS division. Really hoping he teaches it again next spring.

Haha! Don't let that deter you from attending the lectures! I unfortunately didn't get past the waitlist but was still able to attend the lectures and learn a lot.

It was an absolute delight to learn from Prof Stroustrup!

You deliberately caused a potential buffer overflow?

Bjarne is a defensive lecturer so he always allocates a few extra safety seats.

Good to see you here (again) Prakhar! Didn't know you audited Prof. Stroustrup's class.

If I can recommend a project for the HN community to check out, it's krat0sprakhar's JSJS project. One of the prettiest projects I've seen in my time at college as well [0].
