Pre Conference Workshop: Patrice Roy, "Design patterns in modern C++"

Abstract:

Design patterns have been recognized and applied in programs for a long time now, but have traditionally been presented «in the abstract», based on the fact that they can be implemented differently from language to language.

This class aims to see how some key design patterns can be implemented using modern C++, which can be significantly different from what one would traditionally be exposed to. Using C++17 with some measure of C++20 and C++23, we will solve concrete problems using well-known patterns implemented in interesting ways, reinforcing our knowledge of today's C++ at the same time.
