Explore the full potential of C++ by mastering the standard library.

Become a C++ Programmer

The C++ standard library is a collection of all the tools and utilities available in C++. It received its latest update in 2017, known as C++17. The update introduces many new features that further optimize our code. This module will help us fully grasp C++ and use it to its full potential.

C++ Standard Library

[Lambda functions](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/lambda) provide in-place functionality. The compiler gets a lot of insight and has therefore great optimization potential. Lambda functions can receive their arguments by value or by reference. They can capture their environment by value, by reference, and with C++14 by [move](https://www.educative.io/courses/cpp-standard-library-including-cpp-14-and-cpp-17/move-vs-copy). 


Lambda functions provide us all the functionality we need, on the go. They are faster than usual functions.
