This is a pretty general question but I have searched around and don't know of any good repositories to find the answer from, hopefully this thread will help others in the future as well.
As I'm learning C I just went over the modf() function and am looking into the floor() function.
Is there a place to find actual definitions of the abbreviations? I use terminal frequently to find how they are used or to get another guide other than my book, e.g. man modf, but I was hoping to find a list or dictionary that shows the actual abbreviation e.g. Int - integer, float - floating point number... and so on. It seems to help me remember the functions if I can relate them to language in some way.
Thank you!

There is no standard abbreviation rules in defining function name in any programming languages, what you need to know is what library you are using, and see into that library documentations.
From the look of it, you are referring to functions defined in math.h in c standard library.

The best way to learn a new language is reading well structured and well documented projects that use the language constructions in the proper way.
What are the best clojure repos to read and learn from them?
Clojure itself.
Clojure in Small
Pieces:
Clojure 1.2 as a literate program.
There's lots of advice here and here.
Thereafter, I would follow your nose. Find the stuff you are interested in: if it's good, enjoy it. If it's bad, do it better!
Be warned: Clojure is seriously addictive.
I often read https://github.com/aphyr (in particular https://github.com/aphyr/riemann). He writes a lot of Clojure and it's very often well documented and organized.
Others I crib from liberally:

I'm doing some homework for school, and I would like to study the api for std::list, as i'm supposed to implement one of my own.
I'd like to implement a similar interface to that of std, so that i may use my own list comfortably later.
Thanks.
You will find the complete list of member functions and operators at cppreference.com (as also pointed out by #Rook)
But I also think this is not easy, and for sure not for a C++ beginner.
Another option is these offline man pages for STL.

I want to learn Multithreading in C++ and I'm therefore on the hunt for some good literature on the subject containing lots of code and examples. I've found several books online but I was hoping that someone could give a tip on books that you've read yourself and found beneficial for your learning.
Thanks in advance for any reply on the subject
Learn about concurrency and about C++ separately. This will let you better understand what is essential and what is there because either cannot be done differently in C++ or because can be done much better in C++. I may cast downvotes but for learning concurrency as the beginner you will hardly find anything as handy as Java Tutorial from Sun. Even well known and respected Posix threads have been modeled after Solaris threads (which Sun has designed).

There are many known bit twiddling hacks, e.g. the list here; as well as numerous questions here on SO.
Is there a standard-ish library, or even a single header file, implementing all of these? (I would get, as inline functions and/or as preprocessor macros.)
Edit: I'm not interested in implementations using specialized types, i.e. bit vectors or bit sets, but rather code which works directly on your ints/unsigneds/etc.
Well, there's std <bitset> or even bitmagic
Googling will find even more
These are 2 libraries named "Bitfile" library and "Bitarray" library. You can find it at:
http://michael.dipperstein.com/bitlibs/
There is also a single header file which you might find useful at:

I am looking for some c/c++ libraries to do fixed point singular value decomposition or eigenvalue decomposition. Do you know any libraries or any pointers to existing codes?
Thanks
There is a good answer to your question in this thread:
Single Value Decomposition implementation C++
Also, #Bathsheba is pointing you to a good resource, in Numerical Recipes. C is free, but C++ is only "available" with the paid version:
C: http://apps.nrbook.com/c/index.html
C++: http://www.nr.com/oldverswitcher.html
Numerical recipes is a good place to start for all this stuff, visit www.nr.com.
It has versions in C and C++ and other languages although an old cat like me sticks to the C versions.
The very well-written book also explains the algorithms in good detail (the authors are 4 Cambridge professors).
You will have to do some tweaking for fixed point; may be as simple as changing the data types.
Worth a look though methinks.
