Exercises on creating complex, custom data types using the struct keyword and defining type aliases (typedef). Includes working with enumerations, particularly the type-safe enum class.
C++ Templates and Generic Programming Exercises
Total Exercises: 22
Dive into advanced C++ by practicing Generic Programming.
Learn to create versatile Function Templates and Class Templates that can operate on any data type, promoting code reusability.
Recommended Approach to These Exercises
To maximize your learning from these collections, we recommend this structured process:
- Solve Independently: Carefully read each problem statement and make a concerted effort to develop a complete solution on your own before accessing the provided answer.
- Evaluate and Learn: Once your code runs, compare your approach with the verified solution. This comparison is vital for understanding efficient coding patterns and adopting idiomatic C++ practices.
- Extend Your Challenge: Push your skills further by modifying the exercise constraints, experimenting with different C++ features (like the STL or smart pointers), or seeking alternative implementations.
Happy coding!
