The Standard Template Library (STL) encapsulates the pure raw horsepower of C/C++, plus the industry's most efficient algorithms and data structures. This book gives you the insight you need to leverage STL's power, by first teaching the advanced C/C++ fundamentals that make the STL possible. Begin with a high-level view of STL that explains how it is constructed, and its key elements, including containers, iterators, and algorithms. Master key Visual C++ features such as pointers, void pointers, templates and classes. Take advantage of the latest ANSI/ISO C++ standards, including key improvements such as namespaces, new-style type casting, and runtime type information. Then, learn STL in-depth, with extensive code samples covering language support, diagnostics, general utilities, strings, locales, numerics, I/O, and more.
