Video Description

C++ has come a long way and has now been adopted in several contexts. Its key strengths are its software infrastructure and resource-constrained applications. The C++ 17 release will change the way developers write code, and this course will help you master your developing skills with C++.

With real-world, practical examples explaining each concept, the course begins by introducing you to the latest features in C++17. It encourages clean code practices in C++ in general.

You'll get tips on avoiding memory leaks using smart-pointers. Next, you'll see how multi-threaded programming can help you achieve concurrency in your applications. Moving on, you'll get an in-depth understanding of the C++ Standard Template Library.

Finally, we'll round up with debugging techniques and best practices. By the end of the course, you'll have an in-depth understanding of the language and its various facets.

Style and Approach

This straightforward guide will help you level up your skills in C++ programming, whether for enterprise software or for low-latency applications such as games. Filled with real-world, practical examples, this video course will take you gradually up the steep learning curve that is C++.
