This is a series of things that I found out when learning C++. The approach is going to non-standard and likely to annoy any normal C++ professional. I am interested in languages in general and so I will be doing all my early code without and STL at all. I want to learn what features the language offers before starting to use the standard libraries. To this end I try to do do simple version of the features that are already available. That way I can see how these features are implemented in the standard libraries. To me that feels like a important advantage in learning the language. I did try to read the code for the libraries but it has a lot of very nuanced code that I will only get to understand much later on. The code is still interesting to step through however as it does offer clues as to how to unpick various implementations.
