Refreshing C++ Knowledge With Books

I learned C++ long ago in the 90s, but it has been a while since then. I’ve used it rarely on and off, but it is far from my primary language.  But I need to make sure I know the language well. Perhaps new things or things I forgot about could be a pain to refactor the codebase to “the right way” of coding C++.

So, that’s what I’m fixing with books. Here are the books I got to get me up to speed. 

C++ Language

• “The C++ Programming Language, 4th Edition” by Bjarne Stroustrup that (covers C++11)
• “Effective Modern C++: 42 Specific Ways to Improve Your Use of C++11 and C++14” by Scott Meyers
• “A Tour of C++ (C++ In-Depth Series) 2nd Edition” by Bjarne Stroustrup
• “Effective C++: 55 Specific Ways to Improve Your Programs and Designs 3rd Edition” by Scott Meyers

Extra Stuff

• “Mastering Qt 5: Create stunning cross-platform applications using C++ with Qt Widgets and QML with Qt Quick, 2nd Edition” by Guillaume Lazar and Robin Penea
• “Windows via C/C++ 5th Edition” by Jeffrey M. Richter, Christophe Nasarre, and Mark Russinovich

It is a lot of books to go through, thousands of pages… but I can skim for stuff I lack the knowledge for or have a particular interest in.
