6 Tips For Learners Creating Efficient Modern C++ Software

6 Tips For Learners Creating Efficient Modern C++ Software

Hello My Lovely Followers and Great C++ Developers,

C++ Builder is a great C and C++ compiler and IDE and compiler to create great C++ software. The C++ Builder IDE and runtime has a lot of modern features. This is another amazing week with a lot of new C++ posts. Every post here gives you more details about the methods of modern C++ and C++ Builder. Today, we explain less known two basic_string types, std::u16string, and std::u32string. In another post, we give 5 main tips to align your components or group of your UI elements on your form designs. Iterators are great features of C++ and we explain how you can use iterators of string. C++ Builder has a lot of specific useful modern methods that use UnicodeStrings and in the other two posts, we explain how to use ExtractFileExt and ExtractFilePath methods. There are also C++ examples in these topics. You can find links for more methods and examples in these posts.

What is LearnCPlusPlus.org and how does it relate to modern C++ software?

LearnCPlusPlus.org is packed full of great articles for professionals and beginners alike. The posts vary from articles suitable for people who are just starting to learn C++ – basics like string handling, pointers, loops, and all those fundamental building blocks of this rich and powerful programming language – too much more in-depth and advanced subjects like artificial neural networks and AI, along with the math behind it. Our focus is on the C++ language, particularly modern C++, and will work with almost any environment and IDE software you can choose although, of course, we believe RAD Studio C++ Builder is the best option!

If you are new to RAD Studio, we think these posts may help you as much as a rapid introduction to programming in C++, all the way to the most robust, modern, and latest techniques for those more experienced with the language. For those who are perhaps wanting to expand their knowledge with the most up-to-date features, routines, and methodologies this is a great little boost (pun intended) to your C++ knowledge. The new RAD Studio 11C++ Builder 11, Delphi 11 are released with great new features and we are developing and testing new examples for you with the latest RADS 11 that means.LearnCPlusPlus.org examples are working well with the latest C++ Builder.
