That's great - thank-you. Assuming I work through this quickly, what resources would you recommend as a follow-on?

- rramadass 3y agoI am not the person you asked the question to, but my recommendation would be; 1) Discovering Modern C++: An Intensive Course for Scientists, Engineers, and Programmers by Peter Gottschling - Not too thick and focuses on how to program in the language. 2) Software Architecture with C++: Design modern systems using effective architecture concepts, design patterns, and techniques with C++20 by Adrian Ostrowski et al. - Shows how to use C++ in the modern way/ecosystems i.e. with CI/CD, Microservices etc. Optional but highly recommended; a) Scientific and Engineering C++: An Introduction with Advanced Techniques and Examples by Barton & Nackman - Old pre-Modern C++ book which pioneered many of the techniques which have now become common. One of the best for learning C++ design.
- leopoldj 3y agoInstead of giving you a list of books I'll give you a list of topics to learn well. They are listed in a proper learning sequence. - Modern object initialization using {} and (). - std::string_view - std::map - std::stack - Emplace addition of objects to containers like vector and map. - Smart pointers (std::unique_ptr, std::shared_ptr and their ilk). - Ranges library. - Concurrency support library (std::async, std::future, std::thread, locks and the whole deal).
