The other use of design patterns is as a concise and an efficient way to communicate. A pattern is a familiar and instantly recognizable solution to specific problem; through its use, sometimes with a single line of code, we can convey a considerable amount of information. The code conveys: "This is the problem we are facing, these are additional considerations that are most important in our case; hence, the following well-known solution was chosen." By the end of this book, you will have gained a comprehensive understanding of design patterns to create robust, reusable, and maintainable code. What you will learn * Recognize the most common design patterns used in C++ * Understand how to use C++ generic programming to solve common design problems * Explore the most powerful C++ idioms, their strengths, and drawbacks * Rediscover how to use popular C++ idioms with generic programming * Understand the impact of design patterns on the program’s performance Who this book is for This book is for experienced C++ developers and programmers who wish to learn about software design patterns and principles and apply them to create robust, reusable, and easily maintainable apps.
