By learning a little bit of this and a little of that you'll soon have amassed enough knowledge to be writing non-trivial programs and will have built a solid foundation of experience that puts those previously baffling concepts into context.In this fully-revised third edition ofExploring C++, you'll learn how to use the standard library early in the book. Next, you'll work with operators, objects, and data-sources in increasingly realistic situations. Finally, you'll start putting the pieces together to create sophisticated programs of your own design confident that you've built a firm base of experience from which to grow.What You Will Learn Grasp the basics, including compound statements, modules, and more Work with custom types and see how to use them Write useful algorithms, functions, and moreDiscover the latest C++ 20 features, including concepts, modules, and ranges Apply your skills to projects that include a fixed-point numbers and body-mass index applications Carry out generic programming and apply it in a practical project Exploit multiple inheritance, traits/policies, overloaded functions, and metaprogramming Who This Book Is ForExperienced programmers who may have little or no experience with C++ who want an accelerated learning guide to C++20 so they can hit the ground running. 667 pp. Englisch.…
