Book excerpt: This book shows the story of lambda expressions in C++. You'll learn how to use this powerful feature in a step-by-step manner, slowly digesting the new capabilities and enhancements that come with each revision of the C++ Standard. This is a Black and White version. The full-colour print is also available but more expensive. We'll start with C++98/03, and then we'll move on to the latest C++ Standards. C++98/03 - how to code without lambda support. What was the motivation for the new modern C++ feature? C++11 - early days. You'll learn about all the elements of a lambda expression and even some tricks. This is the longest chapter as we need to cover a lot. C++14 - updates. Once lambdas were adopted, we saw some options to improve them. C++17 - more improvements, especially by handling this pointer and allowing constexpr. C++20 - in this section we'll have a look at the latest and very fresh C++20 Standard. Additionally, throughout the chapters, you'll learn about the following techniques: Immediately Invoked Functional Expressions (IIFE) How to instrument a default functor to gather extra information Replacing std:: bind1st, std:: bind2nd and removed functional stuff The Overloaded Pattern and how to inherit from a lambda Passing C++ captureless lambda as a function pointer to C API LIFTING with lambdas Storing lambdas in a container Variadic templates and arguments packs Lambdas and asynchronous execution and many more All equipped with more than 85 runnable code samples!
