C++20 for Programmers 3rd Ed (Pearson)

Subtitled “An Objects-Natural Approach”, this book has been written for programmers with a background in another high-level language. Paul and Harvey Deitel look at modern C++ development hands on using C++20 and its “Big Four” features – Ranges, Concepts, Modules and Coroutines. 

<ASIN: 0136905692>

The book contains over 200, hands-on, real-world code examples, designed to show modern C++ coding idioms using popular compilers – Visual C++, GNU g++, Apple  Xcode  and LLVM /Clang.
