Hey, could you recommend any books or tutorials for C++1y/C++14? I had learned C++ in my CS courses but I've used java/python/javascript these days. I'm thinking of coming back to C++ because C++14 looks cool.

Start with Bjarne's new book, "Tour of C++", it shows how to make proper use of C++11 without those C unsafe influences.

C++14 is mostly fixing what was left out in C++11, so the book is already a good starting point.

C++14 is definitely cool, I use JVM/.NET nowadays at work, but am an old C++ dog (since 1993), so I always used the language on a few side projects.

C++14 kills quite a few complaints I had about the language. Now if we just could get proper modules.
