ACCELERATED C++ practical Programming by Example

"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.
