Coming to grips with C++11 and C++14 is more than a matter of familiarizing yourself with the features they introduce (e.g., auto type declarations, move semantics, lambda expressions, and concurrency support). The challenge is learning to use those features effectively — so that your software is correct, efficient, maintainable, and portable. That's where this practical book comes in. It describes how to write truly great software using C++11 and C++14 — i.e., using modern C++. Topics include: ■ The pros and cons of braced initialization, noexcept specifications, perfect forwarding, and smart pointer make functions ■ The relationships among std::move, std::forward, rvalue references, and universal references ■ Techniques for writing clear, correct, effective lambda expressions ■ How std::atomic differs from volatile, how each should be used, and how they relate to C++'s concurrency API ■ How best practices in “old” C++ programming (i.e., C++98) require revision for software development in modern C++ Effective Modern C++ follows the proven guideline-based, example-driven format of Scott Meyers' earlier books, but covers entirely new material. It's essential reading for every modern C++ software developer. For more than 20 years, Scott Meyers' Effective C++ books (Effective C++, More Effective C++, and Effective STL) have set the bar for C++ programming guidance. His clear, engaging explanations of complex technical material have earned him a worldwide following, keeping him in demand as a trainer, consultant, and conference presenter. He has a Ph.D. in Computer Science from Brown University. “After I learned the C++ basics, I then learned how to use C++ in production code from Meyers' series of Effective C++ books. Effective Modern C++ is the most important how-to book for advice on key guidelines, styles, and idioms to use modern C++ effectively and well. Don't own it yet? Buy this one. Now.”

The brilliant sequel to the critically acclaimed PASHAZADE Among many other things, Ashraf Bey is a fugitive from the US justice system (definitely); son of the Emir of Tunis (possibly); and chief of detectives in the El Iskandryian police force (apparently). Small wonder that he's a little confused... Raf's ex-fiance Zara still doesn't want to see him, so she says. His nine-year-old niece is busy doing things with computers that are strictly illegal. And when the city suddenly starts to fall apart and Zara's father is accused of mass-murder, Raf begins to learn the true cost of loyalty... As the US, France and Germany try to dominate both the present and future of the Middle East in this alternate 21st century - as they have the past - Ashraf Bey must become both saviour and avenger. It's not an easy trick, but someone has to do it

Teodors Fontāne. Efija Brīsta Romāns izcils un populārs psiholoģisks romāns un vācu 19. gadsimta literatūras šedevrs. 17 gadu vecumā Efiju Brīstu vecāki izdod par sievu pie labi situētā barona fon Inštetena, kas nozīmē sabiedrisko karjeru. Laulības dzīve nenorit gluži saskaņā ar vitālās meitenes vēlmēm: Kesina, kur viņa dzīvo kopā ar dzīvesbiedru, ir pārāk garlaicīga, pārāk cēla un patriarhāla ir vīra izturēšanās pret viņu. Viņa uzsāk kaislīgu mīlas sakaru ar kavalieri un sieviešu pielūgsmes objektu Krampu, kas atklājas pēc sešiem gadiem. Inštetens izsauc laulības pārkāpēju uz divkauju.
