An Overview

This repository covers the contents of Bjarne Stroustrup's book, A Tour of C++. Due to the rockiness of C++20 support, the repository will follow the second edition of the book. There might be some examples involving C++20 features, but for the most part C++17 will be the main focus.

Purpose

To review C++ fundamentals and explore C++17 features.

Like other modern languages, C++ is large and there are a large number of libraries needed for effective use. This thin book aims to give an experienced programmer an idea of what constitutes modern C++. It covers most major language features and the major standard-library components. This book can be read in just a few hours but, obviously, there is much more to writing good C++ than can be learned in a day. - Bjarne Stroustrup
