Data Structures and Algorithms with the C++ STL: A guide for modern C++ practitioners

My new book, Data Structures and Algorithms with the C++ STL: A guide for modern C++ practitioners, will be released on Thursday, February 28th, 2024!

This book contains a wealth of knowledge about the C++ STL and is up to date with the C++23 standard.

While the Standard Template Library (STL) offers a rich set of tools for data structures and algorithms, navigating its intricacies can be daunting for intermediate C++ developers without expert guidance. This book thoroughly explores the STL’s components, covering fundamental data structures, advanced algorithms, and concurrency features.

Starting with an in-depth analysis of the std::vector, this book highlights its pivotal role in the STL, progressing toward building your proficiency in utilizing vectors, managing memory, and leveraging iterators. The book then advances to STL’s data structures, including sequence containers, associative containers, and unordered containers, simplifying the concepts of container adaptors and views to enhance your knowledge of modern STL programming. Shifting the focus to STL algorithms, you’ll get to grips with sorting, searching, and transformations and develop the skills to implement and modify algorithms with best practices. Advanced sections cover extending the STL with custom types and algorithms, as well as concurrency features, exception safety, and parallel algorithms.

What You Will Learn:

• Streamline data handling using the std:: vector
• Master advanced usage of STL iterators
• Optimize memory in STL containers
• Implement custom STL allocators
• Apply sorting and searching with STL algorithms
• Craft STL-compatible custom types
• Manage concurrency and ensure thread safety in
• Harness the power of parallel algorithms in STL

Who this book is for:

This book is for intermediate-level C++ developers looking to enhance their software development skills. Familiarity with basic C++ syntax and object-oriented programming (OOP), as well as some exposure to data structures and algorithms, is assumed.
