Learn C++ by Example

Frances Buontempo's Learn C++ by Example presents modern C++ (post-C++11) features through short, self-contained projects and games that make concepts approachable.

The book assumes prior exposure to C or older C++ and focuses on practical techniques, useful syntactic sugar, and a few advanced topics like coroutines.

Its compact format (around 225 pages) emphasizes readable examples—such as small games—to help readers experiment and internalize patterns.

Buontempo also discusses style choices (for example, when to use auto) and common gotchas to help practitioners update their toolkit.

The book is intended as a relearning resource rather than a complete language reference.
