Everything You Need To Know About Strings In Modern C++ Software

pexels mikhail nilov 7988750


Hello C++ Developers,

Today we cover a variety of topics about strings, which mostly include String Operations in Modern C++ software. We will learn more string operations, mostly about wide strings (std::wstring). We will explain converting string to wide strings, with examples. We will also hear about how the replace method can be used to replace part of a string with another string. We will learn to compare wide strings in modern C++. We will explain how to join and merge strings together. Also, we have a great IDE option example to speed up your compilation.

LearnCPlusPlus.org is packed full of great articles for professionals and beginners alike. The posts vary from articles suitable for people who are just starting to learn C++ – basics like string handling, pointers, loops, and all those fundamental building blocks of this rich and powerful programming language – to much more in-depth and advanced subjects like artificial neural networks and AI, along with the math behind it. Our focus is on the C++ language, particularly modern C++, and will work with almost any environment and IDE software you can choose although, of course, we believe RAD Studio C++ Builder is the best option!

If you are new to RAD Studio, we think these posts may help you as much as a rapid introduction to programming in C++, all the way to the most robust, modern, and latest techniques for those more experienced with the language. For those who are perhaps wanting to expand their knowledge with the most up-to-date features, routines, and methodologies this is a great little boost (pun intended) to your C++ knowledge. The new RAD Studio 11C++ Builder 11, Delphi 11 are released with great new features and we are developing and testing new examples for you with the latest RADS 11 that means.LearnCPlusPlus.org examples are working well with the latest C++ Builder.
