# C/C++ Static Analysis

Static analysis catches an enormous class of bugs at zero runtime cost: null derefs, leaks, dangling refs, integer overflow, missing initializers, unused includes, banned APIs.

Three core tools cover most needs:

| Tool | What it catches | Cost |
|---|---|---|
| **clang-tidy** | Style + correctness + modernize + bugprone | Heavy (uses full AST) |
| **cppcheck** | Quick correctness, leaks, off-by-one | Light (own parser) |
| **IWYU** | Missing/superfluous `#include` | Heavy (compile-driven) |
