In A Tour of C++, Second Edition, Bjarne Stroustrup, the creator of C++, describes what constitutes modern C++. This concise, selfcontained guide covers most major language features and the major standardlibrary componentsnot, of course, in great depth, but to a level that gives programmers a meaningful overview of the language, some key examples, and practical help in getting started.Stroustrup presents the C++ features in the context of the programming styles they support, such as objectoriented and generic programming. His tour is remarkably comprehensive. Coverage begins with the basics, then ranges widely through more advanced topics, including many that are new in C++17, such as move semantics, uniform initialization, lambda expressions, improved containers, random numbers, and concurrency. The tour even covers some extensions being made for C++20, such as concepts and modules, and ends with a discussion of the design and evolution of C++.This guide does not aim to teach you how to program (for that, see Stroustrups Programming: Principles and Practice Using C++, Second Edition), nor will it be the only resource youll need for C++ mastery (for that, see Stroustrups The C++ Programming Language, Fourth Edition, and recommended online sources). If, however, you are a C or C++ programmer wanting greater familiarity with the current C++ language, or a programmer versed in another language wishing to gain an accurate picture of the nature and benefits of modern C++, you cant find a shorter or simpler introduction than this tour provides.
