Klappentext
Embrace C++ depth and complexity to discover just how much it can do
C++ is notoriously difficult to master, but its wide-ranging capabilities have made it the most common language for gaming and commercial software applications. Even experienced users are typically unfamiliar with many advanced features, but the release of C++20 presents the perfect opportunity to explore the language's full capabilities. This new fifth edition of Professional C++ provides a code-intensive, solutions-oriented guide to everything C++ has to offer, including the newest tools and features in the latest release. Packed with practical instructions geared toward real-world programming, this book is the programmer's ideal opportunity to dig deeper into C++. The fifth edition covers C++20.
Professional C++:
- Demonstrates how to think in C++ to maximize the language's far-reaching capabilities and develop effective solutions
- Explains poorly understood elements, warns against pitfalls, and shares tips, tricks, and workarounds for efficiency and performance
- Presents a variety of challenging, real-world program segments versatile enough to plug into any project
- Highlights the new features of C++20 including modules, concepts, three-way comparisons, immediate functions, and much more
- Features in-depth discussions of new C++20 Standard Library features, such as text formatting, ranges, atomic smart pointers, synchronization primitives, dates, time zones, and more
Wrox Professional guides are written by working programmers to meet the real-world needs of programmers, developers, and IT professionals. Focused and relevant, they address the issues technology professionals face every day. They provide examples, practical solutions, and expert education in new technologies, all designed to help programmers do a better job.
"As new programmers turn (or return) to C++ for demanding code, and C++ itself evolves with C++20 being the biggest release of C++ in nearly a decade, there's a real need for up-to-date guidance. Writing C++20 code often feels like writing in a fresh new language, and so it's wonderful to see someone like Marc, a well-known and experienced C++ trainer, bring this book to help everyone absorb the new C++ with a fresh look at a refreshed language."
