Master C++ Performance Optimization

Unlock the full potential of your C++ applications with this comprehensive guide. Discover the latest features of C++20, optimize performance, and elevate your coding skills to new heights. Each chapter can be read independently, allowing you to focus on the areas most relevant to your needs.

Chapter Highlights:

Chapter 1, A Brief Introduction to C++, introduces some important properties of C++, such as zero-cost abstractions, value semantics, const correctness, explicit ownership, and error handling. It also discusses the drawbacks of C++.

Chapter 4, Data Structures, takes you through the importance of structuring data so that it can be accessed quickly. Containers from the standard library, such as std::vector, std::list, std::unordered_map, and std::priority_queue, are introduced. Finally, this chapter demonstrates how to use parallel arrays.

Chapter 6, Ranges and Views, will teach you how to compose algorithms using the Ranges library introduced in C++20. You will learn why views from the Ranges library are useful and some benefits of lazy evaluation.

Chapter 7, Memory Management, focuses on safe and efficient memory management. This includes memory ownership, RAII, smart pointers, stack memory, dynamic memory, and custom memory allocators.

Chapter 8, Compile-Time Programming, explains metaprogramming techniques using constexpr, consteval, and type traits. You will also learn how to use C++20 concepts and the new Concepts library. Finally, it provides practical examples of metaprogramming use cases, such as reflection.

Chapter 11, Concurrency, covers the fundamentals of concurrent programming, including parallel execution, shared memory, data races, and deadlocks. It also includes an introduction to the C++ Thread support library, the Atomic library, and the C++ memory model.

Chapter 12, Coroutines and Lazy Generators, contains a general introduction to the coroutine abstraction. You will learn how ordinary functions and coroutines are executed on the CPU using the stack and the heap. C++20 stackless coroutines are introduced and you will discover how to solve problems using generators.
