I explain what atomic variables (std::atomic) and how to use them in modern C++. I describe methods of the atomic template provided by STL in details. In particular: load, store, exchange, compare_exchange_strong, compare_exchange_weak.

Also, I cover C++ memory orders such as:

memory_order_seq_cst
memory_order_acquire
memory_order_release
memory_order_relaxed

I use modern C++11, C++14, and C++17 constructs.
