The third part of my video lecture series introducing the Standard Template Library is now available, following Part 1 and Part 2.  Part 3 covers unique_ptr, shared_ptr, and exception handling (briefly).  It explains my solution to the container erasure problem, and presents a significantly larger homework problem: writing a Nurikabe solver.

In Part 4, the pieces that we’ve seen (sequence containers, associative containers, and smart pointers) will fall into place, and I’ll walk through how my Nurikabe program works.
