Summary:

Learn the C++ programming language in a structured, straightforward, and friendly manner. This updated version of the book teaches the basics of the modern C++ programming language, the C++ Standard Library, and modern C++ standards, including C++23. No previous programming experience is required. C++ is a language like no other, surprising in its complexity, yet wonderfully sleek and elegant in so many ways. It is also a language that cannot be learned by guessing, one that is easy to get wrong and challenging to get right. To overcome this, each section is filled with real-world examples that gradually increase in complexity. Modern C++ for Absolute Beginners, Second Edition teaches more than just programming in C++23. It provides a solid C++ foundation to build upon. The author takes you through the C++ programming language, the Standard Library, and the C++11 to C++23 standard basics. Each chapter is accompanied by the right amount of theory and plenty of source code examples. You will work with C++23 features and standards, yet you will also compare and take a look into previous versions of C++. After reading this book, you'll be able to start programming in modern C++ standards. You will do so with plenty of relevant source code examples, freely available on this book's GitHub page. You will: Work with the basics of C++: types, operators, variables, constants, expressions, functions, classes, I/O, smart pointers, and more Set up the Visual Studio environment on Windows and GCC on Linux, where you can write your own code Declare and define functions, classes, and objects, and organize code into namespaces Discover object-oriented programming including encapsulation, inheritance, polymorphism, using the most advanced C++ features Manage the basics of lambdas,inheritance, polymorphism, smart pointers, templates, modules, contracts, concepts, and more.
