Modern C++ Programming: Memory and Performance

Building reliable and efficient software requires a solid grasp of core memory mechanics and modern language features. C++ remains the industry standard for performance-critical applications where explicit resource control is essential. In this course, you will develop a clear understanding of modern C++ practices to write safe, clear, and fast code. What you will learn: Understand fundamental C++ syntax, object lifecycles, and core language terminology; Master automatic resource management using RAII and smart pointers; Apply move semantics to minimize unnecessary memory allocations and deep copies; Utilize standard library data structures and modern C++ abstractions like concepts and ranges; Learn basic multi-threading concepts for safe concurrent execution; Identify and prevent common memory leaks, dangling pointers, and performance bottlenecks. The course begins with thorough explanations of key definitions, memory layouts, and foundational language rules before moving into practical design patterns. Through clear text explanations and illustrative code snippets, you will gain deep insight into modern C++ development. This course is designed for beginners and developers seeking a strong foundation in modern C++ without needing prior experience in the language.
