Hi,
I'm just wondering should I use std::size_t for loops and stuff instead of int?
For instance:
#include <cstdint>
int main()
{
for (std::size_t i = 0; i < 10; ++i)
// std::size_t OK here? Or should I use, say, unsigned int instead?
}In general, what is the the best practice regarding when to use std::size_t?
