59: You Don't Need Constructors

This exercise is pending. Quick notes about this exercise:

• Talk about why C++ has the odd syntax to pre-initialize variables
• Show how you can use default initialization and designated initializers to avoid constructors.
• Talk about why you want to do this.
• Demonstrate that it's a performance gain most of the time.

The Code

#include <fmt/core.h>
#include <chrono>
#include <thread>
#include <string>

int main(int argc, char* argv[]) {
  fmt::println("HELLO!");
}
