Learning Modern C++: An Interview with Barbara Moo
by Jeff Martin
The popularity of C++ has varied throughout the years since its introduction in the 1980s. The rise of managed languages like Java and C# along with the emergence of scripting languages like JavaScript, Python, and Ruby has affected C++'s adoption. Yet many supporters like C++ for the control, raw power, and speed that it offers. C++11 promises to bring that power to programmers in a more efficient manner, and the changes it introduces illustrate how much the language has grown in the past 30 years. Programmers looking to learn about C++11 or perhaps sample C++ for the first time would do well to try C++ Primer, 5th Edition by Stanley B. Lippman, Josée Lajoie, and Barbara E. Moo. InfoQ had the opportunity to speak with Ms. Moo about her new book and the C++ language as a whole.
