Maximize Reward and Minimize Risk with Modern C++ Embracing Modern C++ Safely shows you how to make effective use of the new and enhanced language features of modern C++ without falling victim to their potential pitfalls. Based on their years of experience with large, mission-critical projects, four leading C++ authorities divide C++11/14 language features into three categories: Safe, Conditionally Safe, and Unsafe. Safe features offer compelling value, are easy to use productively, and are relatively difficult to misuse. Conditionally safe features offer significant value but come with risks that require significant expertise and familiarity before use. Unsafe features have an especially po...
This practical book demonstrates why C++ is still one of the dominant production-quality languages for financial applications and systems. Many programmers believe that C++ is too difficult to learn. Author Daniel Hanson demonstrates that this is no longer the case, thanks to modern features added to the C++ Standard beginning in 2011. Financial programmers will discover how to leverage C++ abstractions that enable safe implementation of financial models. You’ll also explore how popular open source libraries provide additional weapons for attacking mathematical problems. C++ programmers unfamiliar with financial applications also benefit from this handy guide. Learn C++ basics from a modern perspective: syntax, inheritance, polymorphism, composition, STL containers, and algorithms Dive into newer features and abstractions including functional programming using lambdas, task-based concurrency, and smart pointers Implement basic numerical routines in modern C++ Understand best practices for writing clean and efficient code
Good software design is essential for the success of your project, but designing software is hard to do. You need to have a deep understanding of the consequences of design decisions and a good overview of available design alternatives. With this book, experienced C++ developers will get a thorough, practical, and unparalleled overview of software design with this modern language. C++ trainer and consultant Klaus Iglberger explains how you can manage dependencies and abstractions, improve changeability and extensibility of software entities, and apply and implement modern design patterns to help you take advantage of today's possibilities. Software design is the most essential aspect of a software project because it impacts the software's most important properties: maintainability, changeability, and extensibility. Learn how to evaluate your code with respect to software design Understand what software design is, including design goals such as changeability and extensibility Explore the advantages and disadvantages of each design approach Learn how design patterns help solve problems and express intent Choose the right form of a design pattern to get the most out of its advantages
This book is for developers who have knowledge of the basics of the SFML library and its capabilities in 2D game development. Minimal experience with C++ is required.
Writing reliable and maintainable C++ software is hard. Designing such software at scale adds a new set of challenges. Creating large-scale systems requires a practical understanding of logical design – beyond the theoretical concepts addressed in most popular texts. To be successful on an enterprise scale, developers must also address physical design, a dimension of software engineering that may be unfamiliar even to expert developers. Drawing on over 30 years of hands-on experience building massive, mission-critical enterprise systems, John Lakos shows how to create and grow Software Capital. This groundbreaking volume lays the foundation for projects of all sizes and demonstrates the pr...

La narrazione di una storia vera contiene sempre in sé riserve e limiti di tipo psicologico e morale. Ma se protagonista è la famiglia nella quale si plasma e si forma uno dei maggiori scrittori del Novecento italiano e non solo, allora la storia assume un significato che va oltre il racconto stesso. In un microcosmo intricato, denso di storie che affondano le radici in un passato lontano, nasce e muove i primi passi Saverio Strati. Un’umanità inquieta, mossa da passioni forti e sentimenti a volte struggenti, è il tessuto familiare dal quale il giovanissimo scrittore assorbe gli elementi costitutivi della propria personalità. Che lo porterà lontano, in ogni senso, e gli farà scalare le vette del successo. Ma gli intrecci, talvolta asfissianti, i sentimenti, le azioni, le relazioni, i conflitti continueranno a essere la strada sulla quale non smetterà di essere in cammino prima di tutto un uomo.
