   it's more modern. IIUC type var { init } initializers were introduced to enable disambiguation of type var(init), but I suppose some feel it's more desirable to embrace obscure novelties than to go for intuitive readability :-/

     Can someone knowledgeable in C++ tell me why someone would declare a class member like so:

     double x { 0.0 };
     

     Rather than:

     double x = 0.0;
     

     These should do the same thing, but surely the second in much more clear?
