Do you want to take your C++ skills from basic syntax to the next level, including libraries and modern C++? In this course, C++ 17: Beyond the Basics, you’ll learn what modern C++ is, and why it’s to your advantage to write that way. First, you’ll learn about the Standard Library collection classes, and some of the functions in the algorithm header that will save you time and effort while making your code easier for others to understand. Next, you’ll discover lambdas and how to use them, and how to take advantage of move semantics for a tremendous performance enhancement. Finally, you’ll see what exceptions are, when to use them and when not to use them, and how they work. By the end of this course, you’ll have built a fundamental knowledge of C++ syntax, fill in the gaps most C++ developers have, and become one of those developers who uses the whole language to get the most performance while still writing code that’s easy to maintain and read.
