Product Description
With nearly 250,000 sold, Harvey and Paul Deitel'sC++ How to Programis the world's best-selling introduction to C++ programming. Now, this classic has been thoroughly updated! The authors have given this edition a general tune-up of object-oriented programming presentation. The new Fourth Edition has a new code-highlighting style that uses an alternate background color to focus the reader on new code elements in a program. The Deitels' C++ How to Program is the most comprehensive, practical introduction to C++ ever published -- with hundreds of hands-on exercises, roughly 250 complete programs written and documented for easy learning, and exceptional insight into good programming practices, maximizing performance, avoiding errors, debugging, and testing. This new Fourth Edition has an upgraded OOD/UML case to latest UML standard, as well as significant improvements to exception handling and operator overloading chapters. Features enhanced treatment of strings and arrays as objects earlier in the book using standard C++ classes, string and vector. The Fourth Edition retains every key concept and technique ANSI C++ developers need to master: control structures, functions, arrays, pointers and strings, classes and data abstraction, operator overloading, inheritance, virtual functions, polymorphism, I/O, templates, exception handling, file processing, data structures, and more. It also includes a detailed introduction to Standard Template Library (STL) containers, container adapters, algorithms, and iterators. The accompanying CD-ROM includes all the code from the book as well as essential software for learning C++. For anyone who wants to learn C++, improve their existing C++ skills, and master object-oriented development with C++.

Deitel are the founders of Deitel & Associates, Inc., the internationally recognized corporate-training and content-creation organization specializing in C++, C, Visual C++® .NET, Java™, C#, Visual Basic® .NET, XML, Python, Perl, Internet, Web, .NET and object technologies. The Deitels are the authors of several of the world's best-selling programming-language textbooks, including Java How to Program, 4/e, and Internet & World Wide Web How to Program, 2/e.
In C++ How to Program, 4/e, the Deitels introduce the fundamentals of object-oriented programming and generic programming in C++. Key topics include: - Control structures/Functions/Pointers
- Classes/Objects/Encapsulation
- OOP/inheritance/Polymorphism
- Object-Oriented Design with the UML
- string and vector objects
- Pointer-based arrays and strings
- Exception handling/Operator overloading
- Templates/Data structures/Files/Streams
- Standard Template Library (STL)
- Bit and character manipulation
- Namespaces/Run-Time Type Information
- N-tier Web applications/CGI/XHTMLTM™
C++ How to Program, 4/e, helps students build real-world C++ applications. It includes: - Hundreds of LIVE-CODE™ programs with screen captures that show exact outputs
- Extensive Internet and World Wide Web resources to encourage further research
- Hundreds of tips, recommended practices and cautionsall marked with icons
C++ How to Program's teaching resources include Web sites (http://www.deitel.com, http://www.prenhall.com/deitel and http://www.informit.com/deitel) with the book's code examples (also on the enclosed CD) and information for faculty, students and professionals; an optional CD (C++ Multimedia Cyber Classroom, 4/e) with solutions to approximately half the exercises in C++ How to Program, 4/e, interactivity featuresincluding hyperlinks and audio walkthroughs of the code examples.
Customer Reviews & Comments
I have always been a fan of the Deitel series and have read quite a few books - C, C++ and Java How 2 Program as well as H.M. Deitel's book on OPerating Systems. I have little doubts in recommending this book to anyone starting C++. So much to say about this book, however I'll limit myself to a few points which I found salient: This book does not keep referring to C, so you won't get bugged down. (In case you want to learn C, try 'C How to Program' by the same authors.) This book has been written keeping the beginner in mind (beginner = someone new to programming). So, it contains good, solid, perfect, working code you can try out. Each page is littered with observations on Good Programming Practices and Software Engineering. That helps in refinement of code, so you need not buy another book to find out how to code 'effectively'. The exercise questions are elaborate and will keep the reader busy for hours on end. But all that's time that's spent usefully. And this book does not leave out those who already know C++. It's as good as any book for an intermediate level programmer. An excellent book. Buy this one, it's certain that this will be the last C++ book you'll need.
