+Many of the STL algorithms, such as the `copy`, `find` and `sort` methods, started to support the *parallel execution policies*: `seq`, `par` and `par_unseq` which translate to "sequentially", "parallel" and "parallel unsequenced".

 ## Acknowledgements
 * [cppreference](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp) - especially useful for finding examples and documentation of new library features.
 * [C++ Rvalue References Explained](http://thbecker.net/articles/rvalue_references/section_01.html) - a great introduction I used to understand rvalue references, perfect forwarding, and move semantics.
