Key benefits

  • Become familiar with the latest features of C++20 and write better code using the STL
  • Reduce the development time for your applications and enable faster deployment
  • Get up and running with the new and leaner STL capabilities introduced in the latest release

Description

Fast, efficient, and flexible, the C++ programming language has come a long way and is used in every area of the industry to solve many problems. The latest version C++20 will see programmers change the way they code as it brings a whole array of features enabling the quick deployment of applications. This book will get you up and running with using the STL in the best way possible. Beginning with new language features in C++20, this book will help you understand the language's mechanics and library features and offer insights into how they work. Unlike other books, the C++20 STL Cookbook takes an implementation-specific, problem-solution approach that will help you overcome hurdles quickly. You'll learn core STL concepts, such as containers, algorithms, utility classes, lambda expressions, iterators, and more, while working on real-world recipes. This book is a reference guide for using the C++ STL with its latest capabilities and exploring the cutting-edge features in functional programming and lambda expressions. By the end of the book C++20 book, you'll be able to leverage the latest C++ features and save time and effort while solving tasks elegantly using the STL.

Who is this book for?

  • Implement generic features of the STL with practical examples
  • Understand standard support classes for concurrency and synchronization
  • Perform efficient memory management using the STL
  • Implement seamless formatting using std::format

First things first, STL used to be a double-edge sword and there are still some caveats due to various reasonsLuckily, C++ community is working hard to improve the language and fill the gaps to allow C++ to have "modern syntactic sugar" and C++ 20 reflects thisThe book is super easy to follow, I think even if you don't know much of C++ you can easily follow the "recipes" because it's "just enough code"Also, the book approaches other C++ 20 features like:- strings (seem to be trivial but bad usage of string formatting is one of the causes for most security vulnerabilities)- threads- iterators (the generators part is super cool! feels like python programming)- lambdasSome highlights:- explains C++ 20 STL features with "recipes"/examples including also the compilers who are supposed to have mature C++ 20 support- there is a specific recipe on how to avoid recompiling template which is interesting because it used to be a major problem (I have saw projects that would take hours to compile even on new hardware due to the heavy usage of templates)- string handling- threads with futures- iterators and lambdasWhile I understand that STL is the core of the bookOnce it extrapolates the STL scope when it talks about threads, strings and file system, I wish it could also consider the following:- I missed the compilation flag to enable C++ 20 support on gcc, clang, msvc (I don't recall seeing it although it is a really small thing)- coroutinesOverall it's a great introduction to STL and some nice modern features of C++

I am a seasoned C++ programmer and read this book to see if I could learn something new. I was impressed with how thoroughly the author covered the C++ Standard Template Library (STL). The book is clearly written for C++ developers, and I highly recommend it if you want to increase your C++ programming prowess.Packt Publishing’s cookbook format is ideally suited for this content. The recipes are organized into 11 categories. Each recipe contains sections on ‘how to do it’ and ‘how it works.’ Many of the sections also include ‘see also’ or ‘there’s more’ that includes related and deeper concepts. The book does start with an STL primer, albeit short. This is okay as it is written for current C++ developers. Before diving into the individual recipes, the book covers new features that C++20 adds to the STL. The publisher has made all the book’s code available via GitHub.This book will be a great addition to your C++ library, at least until the C++23 standard is finalized in 2023.

This is a fantastic book and I like the writing style of Bill Weinman. I have found this book to be an invaluable reference that has helped me get the most out of the new features that C++ 20 adds to the STL. I have now started to include concepts from this book into parts of my C++ code base modernisation.

How do I know my custom duty charges? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The amount of duty payable varies greatly depending on the imported goods, the country of origin and several other factors like the total invoice amount or dimensions like weight, and other such criteria applicable in your country.

For example:
