C++20 for Programmers (Deitel Developer Series) 3rd Edition 160838

 The professional programmer’s Deitel® guide to Modern C++ Using C++20, the C++ Standard Library, open-source libraries and more

The C++ programming language is popular for developing systems software, embedded systems, operating systems, real-time systems, games, communications systems and other high-performance computer applications. C++20 for Programmers is an introductory-through-intermediate-level, tutorial presentation of Modern C++, which consists of the four most recent C++ standards—C++11, C++14, C++17 and C++20.

 Written for programmers with a background in another high-level language, C++20 for Programmers applies the Deitel signature live-code approach to teaching Modern C++ and explores the C++20 language and libraries in depth. The book presents concepts in fully tested programs, complete with code walkthroughs, syntax coloring, code highlighting and program outputs. It features hundreds of complete C++20 programs with thousands of lines of proven code, and hundreds of software-development tips with a special focus on performance and security, that will help you build robust applications.

Start with C++ fundamentals and the Deitels’ classic treatment of object-oriented programming—classes, inheritance, polymorphism, operator overloading and exception handling. Then discover additional topics, including:

Functional-style programming and lambdas

Concurrency and parallelism for optimal multi-core and big data performance

The Standard Template Library’s containers, iterators and algorithms upgraded to C++20

Text files, CSV files, JSON serialization

Defining custom function templates and class templates

Along the way, you’ll learn compelling new C++20 features, including modules, concepts, ranges, coroutines and Python-style text formatting. When you’re finished, you’ll have everything you need to build industrial-strength, object-oriented C++ applications.
