Takes a revolutionary approach to teaching C++, starting with the most
useful concepts rather than the most primitive ones.This is a first-rate introductory book that takes a practical approach to
solving problems using C++. It covers a much wider scope of C++ programming
than other introductory books I've seen, and in a surprisingly compact format.
--Dag Bruck, founding member of the ANSI/ISO C++ committee The authors present
a clear, cogent introduction to C++ programming in a way that gets the student
writing nontrivial programs immediately. --Stephen Clamage, Sun Microsystems,
Inc., and chair of the ANSI C++ committee Anyone reading just this one book and
working through the examples and exercises will have the same skills as many
professional programmers. --Jeffrey D. Oldham, Stanford University Why is
Accelerated C++ so effective? Because it *Starts with the most useful concepts
rather than the most primitive ones: You can begin writing programs
immediately. *Describes real problems and solutions, not just language
features: You see not only what each feature is, but also how to use it. *
Covers the language and standard library together: You can use the library
right from the start.; The authors proved this approach in their professional-education course at
Stanford University, where students learned how to write substantial programs
on their first day in the classroom. Whether you are eager to get started
writing your first C++ programs, or you are already using C++ and seeking
deeper understanding, the authors' unique approach and expertise make
Accelerated C++ an indispensable addition to your library.
