Häufig gestellte Fragen

Modern C++ Templates refer to the powerful template system introduced and expanded upon in recent C++ standards (C++11, C++14, C++17, and C++20). Templates allow developers to write more generic, reusable, and type-safe code, making it an essential feature for high-performance C++ programming. Understanding modern template techniques is crucial for taking full advantage of C++'s capabilities, especially in the context of generic programming, type manipulation, and metaprogramming.

This course dives deep into the world of C++ templates, covering both fundamental and advanced topics. It explores how function templates and class templates work, how template argument deduction and specialization occur, and how template features have evolved in C++11, C++14, C++17, and C++20. The course also covers important topics like variadic templates, fold expressions, and modern techniques for reducing compilation overhead. You’ll learn by working through hands-on examples and a final project that allows you to apply your knowledge in a practical context.

After completing this course, you’ll be able to confidently write and optimize complex template-based code in C++. You'll understand how to create and specialize both function and class templates, how to use advanced C++ features like variadic templates and fold expressions, and how to effectively reduce compilation overhead using techniques like extern templates. Additionally, you’ll gain the skills to handle template changes introduced in newer C++ standards, making your C++ code more modern, efficient, and flexible.

To enroll in this course, you should have a solid understanding of C++ programming, including knowledge of basic syntax, classes, functions, and object-oriented programming concepts. Familiarity with C++’s basic features (such as data types, loops, and conditionals) is required, but prior experience with templates is not necessary, as the course starts with an introduction to templates and gradually builds up to advanced topics.
