C++14 FAQs - Paperback

by Chandra Shekhar Kumar (Author)

This book contains selected questions related to C++14 with detailed solutions to all of these which will help the reader to hone her skills to solve a particular problem.

Primary sources of this collection are:

1. Advanced C++ FAQs: Volume 1: Fundamentals
2. Advanced C++ FAQs: Volume 2: Generic Programming
3. Advanced C++ FAQs: Volumes 1 & 2

This book is not an introduction to C++. It assumes that the reader isaware of the basics of C++98 and C++03 and wants to expand her horizonto latest and greatest in C++14(aka C++1y). The problems are marked ona scale of one(*)(simplest) to five stars(*****)(hardest).Forthcoming volumes will strengthen this particular approach spanningvarious areas of C++.
