Exploring C++divides C++ up into bite-sized chunks that will help you learn the language one step at a time. Assuming no familiarity with C++, or any other C-based language, you&ll be taught everything you need to know in a logical progression of small lessons that you can work through as quickly or as slowly as you need. C++ can be a complicated language. Writing even the most straight-forward of programs requires you to understand many disparate aspects of the language and how they interact with one another. C++ doesn't lend itself to neat compartmentalization the way other languages do. Rather than baffle you with complex chapters explaining functions, classes and statements in isolation we&ll focus on teaching you how to achieve results. By learning a little bit of this and a little of that you&ll soon have amassed enough knowledge to be writing non-trivial programs and will have built a solid foundation of experience that puts those previously baffling concepts into context. In this fully-revised second edition ofExploring C++, you&ll learn how to use the standard library early in the book. Next, you&ll learn to work with operators, objects and data-sources in increasingly realistic situations. Finally, you&ll start putting the pieces together to create sophisticated programs of your own design confident that you&ve built a firm base of experience from which to grow. | Exploring C++ 11 by Ray Lischner, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
