Between threads. Between processes. - Explain how a named pipe works (FIFO). - What does the inline keyword do in C++? What are the pros and cons? - How do virtual functions work in C++? Explain how vtable lookup works. - Map vs unordered_map in C++, how is each one implemented under the hood. What data structure is used.
