C++ expert instructor Rainer Grimm offers accessible, practical coverage of the Core Guidelines that offer the most value to students learning the C++ programming language. Offering new insights, indispensable context, and proven C++ examples drawn from his courses and seminars, Grimm helps students get more value from the guidelines. The wide-ranging coverage of this text addresses C++ programming philosophy, interfaces, functions, classes, class hierarchies, enumerations, resource management, expressions, statements, performance, concurrency, error handling, constants, immutability, templates, generic programming, C-style programming, source files, the Standard Library, and more. Each section links to the original standard online, and wherever appropriate, Grimm previews advances from C++20 and C++23. With Grimm, students can use the C++ Core Guidelines to write C++ code that is more consistent, robust, and well-performing.
Rainer Grimm has worked as a software architect, team lead, and instructor since 1999, and offered seminars on C++, Python, and proprietary software since 2002. He writes regularly on C++, Python, and Haskell, speaks at conferences on programming issues, and blogs weekly in English (modernescpp.com) and German (www.grimm-jaud.de/index.php/blog). Now an independent instructor, he offers seminars on modern C++ and Python. He has authored several books on modern C++, concurrency, and related topics.
