C++ Fundamentals
Packt Publishing Limited (Verlag)
978-1-78980-149-1 (ISBN)
Write high-level abstractions while retaining full control of the hardware, performances, and maintainability.
Key Features
Transform your ideas into modern C++ code, with both C++11 and C++17
Explore best practices for creating high-performance solutions
Understand C++ basics and work with concrete real-world examples
Book DescriptionC++ Fundamentals begins by introducing you to the C++ compilation model and syntax. You will then study data types, variable declaration, scope, and control flow statements. With the help of this book, you'll be able to compile fully working C++ code and understand how variables, references, and pointers can be used to manipulate the state of the program. Next, you will explore functions and classes — the features that C++ offers to organize a program — and use them to solve more complex problems. You will also understand common pitfalls and modern best practices, especially the ones that diverge from the C++98 guidelines.
As you advance through the chapters, you'll study the advantages of generic programming and write your own templates to make generic algorithms that work with any type. This C++ book will guide you in fully exploiting standard containers and algorithms, understanding how to pick the appropriate one for each problem.
By the end of this book, you will not only be able to write efficient code but also be equipped to improve the readability, performance, and maintainability of your programs.

Francesco Zoffoli is a professional software engineer currently working for Bloomberg LP in London. He became an enthusiast about modern C++ when joining the financial industry after a master degree in Computer Science and Engineering at Politecnico di Milano. He is passionate about programming languages, maintainable software, and large distributed systems. He uses C++ for his projects as well as his day-to-day job to deliver scalable, efficient, and resilient systems. Antonio Mallia is a C++ enthusiast with half a decade of experience in the industry as a software engineer and is currently pursuing a Ph.D. in computer science at NYU Tandon School of Engineering in New York City. His research interest is mainly related to information retrieval, with a strong focus on improving the efficiency of large-scale systems. For this reason, C++ plays a vital role in most of his projects and contributes to their success.
