Concurrency with Modern C++ is a journey through current and upcoming concurrency in C++.

• C++11 and C++14 have the basic building blocks for creating concurrent or parallel programs.
• With C++17 we got the parallel algorithms of the Standard Template Library (STL). That means, most of the algorithms of the STL can be executed sequential, parallel, or vectorized.
• The concurrency story in C++ goes on. With C++20/23 we can hope for executors, extended futures, coroutines, transactions, and more.

This book explains you the details to concurrency in modern C++ and gives you, in addition, more than 100 running code examples . Therefore you can combine the theory with the practices and get the most of it.

Because this book is about concurrency, I present a lot of pitfalls and show you how to overcome them.

The C++ Standard Library is a quick reference to the standard library of the current C++17 standard.

The Goal

The goal of this quick reference is to provide a concise reference of the C++ standard library. This book assumes that you are familiar with C++. If so you will get the most benefit out of this book. If C++ is totally new to you, you should start with a textbook about core C++. Once you have mastered a textbook about the core language, you can make your next big step by reading this book.

This book gives you, in addition, more than 100 running code examples to the code snippets, I presented in the book. Therefore you can combine the theory with the practices and get the most of it.

A Lot of Thanks

In particular, I thank the English proofreaders of my book: Mahesh Attarde, Rick Audet, Pete Barrow, Michael Ben-David, Dave Burns, Marius Grimm, Alvaro Fernandez, George Haake, Clare Macrae, Arne Mertz, Ian Reeve, Jason Turner, Bart Vandewoestyne, Ivan Vergiliev, and Andrzej Warzynski. They translated my Swabian English into English. Without their precious work, the book wouldn't have been possible.
