A Sample for my Mentoring Program “Fundamentals for C++ Professionals”

Before you participate in my mentoring program, you should know more about it. Today, I publish as a teaser, step six of the 28 steps to master C++.

A short reminder: My English mentoring program “Fundamentals for C++ Professionals” starts on the 22nd of April. The goal of the program is to become a professional C++ developer in 28 steps in 9 months. To do this, you must invest 3 hours per week. I have chosen the weekly time commitment for my mentoring program in such a way that it can be mastered safely alongside work. Here are the 28 steps.

28 Steps

Here are the 28 steps:

Introduction
Literals
Types: enumerations, pointer, references, and casts
Types: type deduction with auto and decltype
Values: initialization, conversion, const, and constexpr
Values: move semantics and perfect forwarding
Memory
Functions
Classes: attributes and constructors
Classes: initialization, destructors, and member functions
Classes: default, and delete, operator overloading, explicit, access rights, friends, and structs
Inheritance: abstract base classes, access rights, constructors, base class initializers
Inheritance: destructor, virtuality, override, and final, and multiple inheritances
Templates: functions and classes
Templates: parameters and arguments
Template Specialization
Type Traits
Smart Pointers
STL: General Ideas (containers, algorithms, iterators, callables, range-based)
STL: Common Interface of the Containers
STL: sequential containers and associative containers
STL: algorithms
Strings including string views
Regular Expressions
In- and Output
Threads: creation, data sharing, mutexes, and locks
Threads: thread-local data, thread-safe initialization, condition variables
Tasks

One Step

One station contains theory, practice, and mentoring.

Theory
- Pure theory with approx. ten slides (video)
- Applied theory with approx. five examples (video)
Practice
- Explain the exercises (video)
- Explain the sample solutions to the exercises (video)
Mentoring
- Live Q&A session on each Friday of each week, in which I address questions about the week’s topic; I record this session.
- E-mail queries by participants; I publish the e-mail responses anonymously if appropriate or address them in the Q&A sessions.

Step 6 (Move Semantics and Perfect Forwarding) as a Sample
