Herb Sutter, one of the most prolific C++ experts out there, recently gave a talk on Modern C++ [1]. In the beginning of his talk, he states that every C++ developer should read a "Tour of C++" [2] by Bjarne Stroustrup, the original designer of C++.
I recently read it and it's great. The book has less than 200p, but still covers the most important parts of C++11, albeit not in great detail (the reader is pointed to "The C++ Programming Language" by the same author for that). Read it! And watch the youtube video in [1].

- ghantila 12y agocppreference.com is a good resource too. It's updated frequently. http://en.cppreference.com/w/ http://en.cppreference.com/w/
- lallysingh 12y agoI can't stand that site. I try to use the old SGI stl reference whenever I can.
- throwawayaway 12y agoit's a great site, but it's jarring at first. the sgi stl reference doesn't have a lot of c++11 in it.
- forrestthewoods 12y agowhoa really? To me cppreference is the single best example of code documentation I've ever used. Clean, easy to search, thorough but skimmable listing of interfaces, great example code, modifiable example code, provides necessary information not part of function declarations (iterator invalidation rules). I'm surprised you prefer the far more bare bones SGI version.
- cubbimew 12y agoHow is the reference for a library abandoned over 15 years ago even relevant? (other than when researching history)
- Cyph0n 12y agoBookmarking because I also plan on entering C++ soon. I really don't want to be too behind.
