 ### std::forward
-TODO
+Returns the arguments passed to it as-is, either as an lvalue or rvalue references, and includes cv-qualification. Useful for generic code that need a reference (either lvalue or rvalue) when appropriate, e.g factories. Forwarding gets its power from _template argument deduction_:
+* `T& &` becomes `T&`
+* `T& &&` becomes `T&`
+* `T&& &` becomes `T&`
+* `T&& &&` becomes `T&&`

+An example of a function `wrapper` which just forwards other `A` objects to a new `A` object's copy or move constructor:

 C++11 introduces a memory model for C++, which means library support for threading and atomic operations. Some of these operations include (but aren't limited to) atomic loads/stores, compare-and-swap, atomic flags, promises, futures, locks, and condition variables.
 
 ## Acknowledgements
-TODO
+* [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.
+* [clang](http://clang.llvm.org/cxx_status.html) and [gcc](https://gcc.gnu.org/projects/cxx-status.html)'s standards support pages. Also included here are the proposals for language/library features that I used to help find a description of, what it's meant to fix, and some examples.
+* [Compiler explorer](https://godbolt.org/)
+* [Scott Meyers' Effective Modern C++](https://www.amazon.com/Effective-Modern-Specific-Ways-Improve/dp/1491903996) - highly recommended book!
+* [Jason Turner's C++ Weekly](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCxHAlbZQNFU2LgEtiqd2Maw) - nice collection of C++-related videos.
