What we’re about
Join us to learn more about the latest developments in C and C++ programming. The ISO standards body has ratified C++20, the latest version of the standard, making this the best version of C++ so far. The C++ programming language supports a wide variety of programming styles, from procedural to object-oriented to functional to generic. If you haven't touched base with C++ lately, come join us to experience the joy of using modern C++!
C++ is the place to be when you care about power consumption, efficiency, performance, deterministic resource management and compactness of code. You can have all of this and still retain expressive designs and suitable abstractions.
Virtual meeting recordings can be found on our YouTube channel Utah Cpp Programmers.
We have a team on exercism.io for discussing and improving the way we write C++ code. The team name is utahcpp.

See all- Make an Animated Christmas Card with CursesLink visible for attendees
Curses is a library for screen oriented text applications. Curses is essentially a window like user interface for text screens. When Bill Joy wrote vi, he wrote some code to optimize repainting the terminal screen and positioning the cursor. This code was borrowed and extended by Kenneth Arnold to create the general-purpose library curses for programming on text terminals.
This month, Richard Thomson will give us an introduction to programming with curses, using the ncurses library on linux and the pdcurses library on Windows. Some of the topics to be covered are:
- Obtaining the library via vcpkg
- Basic screen output with curses
- Setting character attributes with curses
- Obtaining input with curses
- Drawing simple animations with curses
