C++
Primer Plus, Fourth Edition presents the ANSI C++ standard beginning with a
discussion of the essential elements of C++ programming: loops, expressions,
functions, and classes. It walks readers through the basics of object-oriented
programming: classes, inheritance, templates, and exceptions, as well as the
latest object-oriented programming techniques. C++ Primer Plus contains
hundreds of sample programs. The friendly tone, concise programs, and
end-of-chapter review exercises allow beginners to write their own programs
immediately.
