Vittorio Romeo – Mastering C Standard Library Features Video

C++ has come a long way and has now been adopted in several contexts with the latest updates of the STL and with C++17 on its way.

This video course will take you through C++s Standard library and the most important features of C++11/14/17. You will begin with new language features and will gradually move on to library components and then to the traps and pitfalls and ways to avoid them. You will learn about STL components such as <utility>, smart pointers, std::function, std::move, and std::exchange, while at the same time reinforcing and deepening your understanding of the new language features. From here, you will learn to examine containers, iterators, function objects, with STL algorithms and lambda expressions. You will also be introduced to some upcoming C++17 additions including language features such as constexpr lambdas, and library additions such as the new algebraic data types and metaprogramming utilities. Throughout the course, you will learn the common pitfalls in old C++ programming and best practices for software development in Modern C++.

By the end of the course, you will have mastered Modern C++s most impactful language and library features.

In this course, we will analyze and demystify some of the major new features such as move semantics, variadic templates, and lambdas: being familiar with them is key to produceing readable and maintainable code of higher quality. We will also cover new techniques that allow computations to be performed at compile-time. The course introduces various new language features and demonstrates their synergy with the Standard Library. Game-changing features such as move semantics and smart pointers will be analyzed in depth, providing a strong understanding of the way they work. Lambda expressions and their interactions with the STL will be demystified, while providing many useful real-world examples. This course covers a very diverse set of topics and features (from C++11, C++14, and C++17) that are very impactful on their own, but even better combined together ; every developers toolbox will be enriched with many new techniques and ideas to tackle any kind of problem in an elegant, robust, safe, and efficient manner
