We will cover the following recipes in this chapter:
- Creating, concatenating, and transforming strings
- Trimming whitespace from the beginning and end of strings
- Getting the comfort of std::string without the cost of constructing std::string objects
- Reading values from user input
- Counting all words in a file
- Formatting your output with I/O stream manipulators
- Initializing complex objects from file input
- Filling containers from std::istream iterators
- Generic printing with std::ostream iterators
- Redirect output to files for specific code sections
- Creating custom string classes by inheriting from std::char_traits
- Tokenizing input with the regular expression library
- Comfortably pretty printing numbers differently per context on the fly
- Catching readable exceptions from std::iostream errors
