Using the C++ Standard Template Libraries is a contemporary treatment that teaches the generic programming capabilities that the C++ 14 Standard Library provides. In this book, author Ivor Horton explains what the class and function templates available with C++ 14 do, and how to use them in a practical context.You'll learn how to create containers, and how iterators are used with them to access, modify, and extend the data elements they contain. You'll also learn about stream iterators that can transfer data between containers and streams, including file streams. The function templates that define algorithms are explained in detail, and you'll learn how to pass function objects or lambda expressions to them to customize their behavior. Many working examples are included to demonstrate how to apply the algorithms with different types of containers. After reading this book, you will understand the scope and power of the templates that the C++ 14 Standard Libraryincludes and how these can greatly reduce the coding and development time for many applications. You'll be able to combine the class and function templates to great effect in dealing with real-world problems.The templates in the Standard Library provide you as a C++ programmer with a comprehensive set of efficiently implemented generic programming tools that you can use for most types of application.How to use Standard Library templates with your C++ applications.Understand the different types of containers that are available and what they are used for.How to define your own class types to meet the requirements of use with containers.What iterators are, the characteristics of the various types of iterators, and how they allow algorithms to be applied to the data in different types of container.How you can define your own iterator types.What the templates that define algorithms do, and how you apply them todata stored in containers and arrays.How to access hardware clocks and use them for timing execution.How to use the templates available for compute-intensive numerical data processing.How to create and use pseudo-random number generators with distribution objects.

Begin your programming journey with C++ , starting with the basics and progressing through step-by-step examples that will help you become a proficient C++ programmer. This book includes new features from the C++23 standard.  All you need are Beginning C++23 and any recent C++ compiler and you'll soon be writing real C++ programs. There is no assumption of prior programming knowledge.  All language concepts that are explained in the book are illustrated with working program examples, and all chapters include exercises for you to test and practice your knowledge. Free source code downloads are provided for all examples from the text and solutions to the exercises.  This latest edition has been fully updated to the latest version of the language, C++23, and to all conventions and best practices of modern C++. This book also introduces elements of the C++ Standard Library that provide essential support for C++23. After completing this book, you will have the knowledge and skills needed to build your first C++ applications. What You Will LearnBegin programming with the C++23 standardCarry out modular programming in C++Work with arrays and loops, pointers and references, strings, and moreWrite your own functions, types, and operatorsDiscover the essentials of object-oriented programmingUse overloading, inheritance, virtual functions, and polymorphismWrite generic function and class templates, and make them safer using concepts Learn the ins and outs of containers, algorithms, and rangesUse auto type declarations, exceptions, move semantics, lambda expressions, and much moreWho This Book Is ForProgrammers new to C++ and those who may be looking for a refresh primer on C++ in general.

Written in the same style that has made Ivor Horton a best-selling author, this third edition of his popular title is a comprehensive, ground-up tutorial! The third edition has been completely revised and updated, and is ideal for self-taught students and scholars enrolled in structured courses. The text and examples are progressive; each topic builds and expands upon the previous topic. Further, the book provides in-depth coverage of class templates, including an introduction to the Standard Template Library. No prior knowledge of any particular programming language is assumed; the only requirement is a basic appreciation of elementary programming concepts. If you understand the basic notions of how programs worklike branching and loopingthis book is for you! Horton demonstrates all language elements with complete working code examples, and includes practice exercises at the end of each chapter.
