C++ is one of the most prominent programming languages in the world. Along with optimized performance, the diverse functionality it offers has kept the language relevant for two decades. The C++ Standard Library, which is the collection of all the tools and utilities available in C++, received its latest update in 2017. Known as C++17, the update introduces many new features that further optimize our code.

Join us in this course as we venture into the vast world of C++17. We’ll examine the fundamentals of the language, before moving on to more complex yet powerful tools. You can also experiment with the code provided and hence, gain a higher understanding of how things work. This course is perfect for anyone willing to fully grasp C++ and use it to its full potential. Welcome aboard!

Arguably the quickest and easiest way to get up to speed on
the most important parts of the C++ standard library. Recommended for any modern C++ programmer.

Das Buch beinhaltet, wie der Name schon sagt, eine recht ausführliche Beschreibung der STL. Dabei merkt Mann deutlich dass der Autor auch selber auf hohem Niveau programmiert. Es gibt oft den ein oder andere Tipp oder Wink in die richtige Richtung die bei Bücher von Berufsautoren oft fehlen. Z.B. die Aussage dass std::vector für 95% aller Fälle die beste Wahl ist oder dass std::async meistens die erste Wahl sein sollte lenkt der Leser geschickt in die richtige Richtung.

Auch die Auswahl an Komponente aus der STL ist sehr gut getroffen (keiner kann in ein kürzen Buch die ganze STL beschreiben). Oft sehe ich, vor allem in Deutschsprachige Literatur, dass die Auswahl eher auf Komponente trifft die leicht zu beschreiben sind und nicht auf die Nützlichen. Eine gute und dennoch kürze Beschreibung vom std::regex z.B. ist weiß Gott nicht einfach aber in diesem Fall ist es der Autor sehr gelungen.

Die 215 Seiten plus Index des ’C++ kurz & gut’ vom Autor Rainer Grimm stellen ein gelungene Destillat viel umfangreicherer Texte zum Thema da. So nimmt das Kapitel über die klassischen Algorithmen der Standardbibliothek ganze 131 Seiten ein. Selbst kurze Beispiele für die Anwendung der wichtigsten Bestandteile der Standardbibliothek passen eng gedruckt in das schmale Büchlein. Auch wenn heute Tools wie Dash oder entsprechend ausgestattete IDEs, mehr und mehr den Platz derartiger Desktop-Referenzen einnehmen, ist das ’kurz & gut’ zu C++ Standardbibliothek ein leichter und mobiler Begleiter für jeden C++ Entwickler. Und als Kindle Version um so bequemer mitzunehmen.

[Regular expression](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/regex) is a language for describing text patterns. They need the header `<regex>`. 

Regular expressions are a powerful tool for the following tasks:

* Check if a text matches a text pattern: `std::regex_match`

* Search for a text pattern in a text: `std::regex_search`

* Replace a text pattern with a text: `std::regex_replace`

* Iterate through all text patterns in a text: `std::regex_iterator` and `std::regex_token_iterator`

C++ supports six different grammars for regular expressions. By default, the ECMAScript grammar is used. This one is the most powerful grammar of the six grammars and is quite similar to the grammar used in Perl 5. The other five grammars are the basic, extended, awk, grep and egrep grammars.

> Use raw string literals in regular expressions. The regular expression for the text C++ is quite ugly: `C\\+\\+`. You have to use two backslashes for each + sign. First, the + sign is a special character in a regular expression. Second, the backslash is a special character in a string. Therefore one backslash escapes the + sign, the other backslash escapes the backslash. By using a raw string literal the second backslash is not necessary anymore, because the backslash is not be interpreted in the string.
