Course Description

Note: This course is still in draft mode and is 50% complete. 

C++20 is said to be the next revolutionary standard after C++11. It has improved existing features, such as lambda expressions, templates, enums, etc, and has added a host of new features.

The most important new features are the big four - concepts, coroutines, modules & ranges. Concepts is a new way to apply constraints to your template arguments. Coroutines help us write functions that can be interrupted & resumed, all without additional threads.

Modules are a new way to modularize a C++ application. No more messy header files. You can expose or hide your code in modules with full control.

Ranges is another important feature added in C++20. It allows you to work with containers and algorithms easily without having to deal directly with iterators.

Learn about all these features in this course and more.
