Explore the C++ 23 STL with practical guidance on vectors, algorithms, and custom types for intermediate developers, enriched by real-world examples.Key FeaturesMaster the std::vector and understand why it should be your default container of choiceUnderstand each STL algorithm and its practical applicationsGain insights into advanced topics such as exception guarantees and thread safetyPurchase of the print or Kindle book includes a free PDF eBookBook DescriptionWhile 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 offers a thorough exploration of 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.By the end of this book, you'll have transformed into a proficient STL practitioner ready to tackle real-world challenges and build efficient and scalable C++ applications.What you will learnStreamline data handling using the std::vectorMaster advanced usage of STL iteratorsOptimize memory in STL containersImplement custom STL allocatorsApply sorting and searching with STL algorithmsCraft STL-compatible custom typesManage concurrency and ensure thread safety in STLHarness the power of parallel algorithms in STLWho this book is forThis 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.Tailored to software engineers, computer science students, and hobbyist programmers, this book delves into C++ STL for practical application, performance enhancement, and efficient coding practices.Table of ContentsThe Basics of std::vectorMastering Iterators with std::vectorMastering Memory and Allocators with std::vectorMastering Algorithms with std::vectorMaking a Case for std::vectorAdvanced Sequence Container UsageAdvanced Ordered Associative Container UsageAdvanced Unordered Associative Container UsageAdvanced Container Adaptor UsageAdvanced Container View UsageFundamental Algorithms and SearchingManipulation and TransformationNumeric and Range-Based OperationsPermutations, Partitions, and HeapsSTL with RangesCreating STL-Types ContainersCreating STL-Compatible AlgorithmsType Traits and PoliciesException SafetyThread Safety and Concurrency with the STLSTL Interaction with Concepts and CoroutinesParallel Algorithms with the STL
