Introduction
C++: Effective Modern С++(C++ 11, C++ 14) is not for beginners. It is for users who have learned
and mastered the basis. This book focuses on using modern versions of C++ which include version
11 & 14. If you are used to the old ways of programming C++11/14 has introduced a wide variety of
changes. These changes include things like lambda expressions, auto declarations and so much more.
C++ 11 and C++ 14. This book is devoted to not just describing the features but providing help with
C++11 and C++14’s application.
Are you interested in learning the differences between the new modern languages? Are you interested
in learning how to apply the new concepts from the modern languages? Are you looking to know
what has changed in the latest version of C++? This is the perfect book for you.
Versioning within C++ is not new a new discover although C++11 and C++14 are not very old. Prior
to these two there was C++98 or C++03.
C++98 was the first standard to be released for C++. C++03 was a bug fix iteration in C++. It
allowed for greater consistency as well as portability. This came as a replacement to the 1998
version. This version had one new feature. This single feature was value initialization. Aside from
this feature C++03 addressed 92 language defects and 125 library defects.
C++ versioning is not something that will likely go away. As more defects, advancements and ways
to upgrade the language are found, new iterations will be released. This book focuses on C++11 and
C++14. It provides information and examples of the features which were released in each
corresponding version. The term Modern C++ started with the creation of C++11. This new era of
C++ intends to make the language easier to use and safer without sacrificing performance. C++ has
been the go to language when looking for a language with a high-performance record. C++11 and
C++14 are keeping this vision alive with their latest updates.
