Book Description
This book begins by grounding readers in the essentials of modern C++23, covering syntax, compiling, and core programming concepts. Early chapters introduce building blocks like data types, functions, and statements, ensuring a solid foundation. Readers also learn coding best practices focused on readability and modularization. As the journey progresses, the focus shifts to object-oriented programming, exploring classes, inheritance, namespaces, and lifecycle management. The text includes advanced topics such as templates, macros, and the integration of C libraries. Readers develop skills in designing secure, maintainable, and extensible code while mastering error handling and testing. The final sections dive into concurrency, standard library features like containers and algorithms, and advanced stream handling. Practical guidance on thread management, synchronization, and modern concurrency tools prepares readers for real-world applications. Concluding chapters present C++ guidelines, emphasizing sustainable and quality code development, completing a comprehensive path from fundamentals to expert-level mastery.
