Read full description

A reference of everyday C++, from strings and STL containers to templates, smart pointers and threads. Every example comes with an explanation, and most of them run. • 19 sections: simple types, arrays and collections, classes and structs, templates, functions and lambdas, operator overloading, exception handling, regular expressions, threading, files, algorithms, patterns. • Run in the app: the example really executes and the output appears under the code. Needs an internet connection. • What changed in new versions: 5 sections from C++11 to C++23, with "before" and "after" code side by side. • Keyword and function reference: 192 articles, fully open with no daily counter. • SQL alongside: over 200 queries against a live practice database - JOIN, GROUP BY, subqueries, data types. • Edit examples and add your own - they stay in the app and are always at hand. • Search runs over the code itself, not just the titles: remember a fragment and you will find the example. • Everything except running works offline. No account needed. WHAT THE FREE VERSION INCLUDES 12 runs and 12 edits a day - the counter resets every morning. The keyword reference is open without limits. Up to 5 examples of your own. Copying in the free app is blocked after five attempts. The full version opens every example, removes the daily limits and raises running to 30 launches a day. One purchase, no subscription. Made by a developer for developers. In development since 2015.

The call

The clearest difference is rating: C++ Recipes at 5.0 against 编程猫机器人's 4.0. 编程猫机器人's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 4 months) and ratings volume (232 vs 4). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

C++ Recipes holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 编程猫机器人 has 232 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 44% of C++ Recipes's written reviews are positive against 63% of 编程猫机器人's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

C++ Recipes ships an update every 4 months, 编程猫机器人 weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 27, 2026 respectively.
