Short course: Modern STL Basics
This 1.5 day short course will be given by Nicolai Josuttis. Nicolai Josuttis is a member of the C++ Standard Committee for over 20 years and the author of four C++ books, e.g. The C++ Standard Library - A Tutorial and Reference; C++20 - The Complete Guide; C++17 - The Complete Guide; and C++ Move Semantics - The Complete Guide.
In the course participants will learn the following:
Modern STL Basics:
- Algorithms (e.g. the various sorts() algorithms we have and why)
- Data structures including unordered containers
- Iterators (and why raw pointers can be used like them)
Then on top of that:
- Lambdas (and “callables” for algorithms, maybe including function objects)
- Iterators categories and why raw pointers work for iterators
- How generic programming helps (incl. how std::array is implemented)
- Parallel algorithms
- C++20 Ranges and views (and how views compromise certain C++/STL principles)
