This was an awesome book!

I am already well-versed in C++, having it as one of the many tens of programming languages I know. However, I have recently gotten into Arduino programming, and so was a good way to get some insights of optimization for my projects!

Would recommend!

4.8/5

It describes very well some old topics (like String library, STL, containers, operation overload). I think that it needs update, but for the old version of C++, is very good!
