Modern C++

4 days
ModCpp - Version:1
Description
Modern C++ is not just about new language features or a bunch of library improvements. Modern C++ is how we write code, how we design interfaces, and how we make the best use of modern features while respecting existing investments. This is an exciting time to be a C++ developer, and this course will show you how to make the most of C++ 11/14, how to use advanced template features and design for exception safety, and how to work with parallelism and concurrency in standard and non-standard C++ code. In this course you will experience the spirit of true modern C++.
Intended audience
C++ developers, team leaders, and software architects.
