Review:Excellent book.
Each chapter (aka item) provides advise and guidelines, very effectively explaining the underlying concepts.
It is very well written. It's one of these few remarkable books that are easy and fun to read while deeply technical.
Pragmatic and very useful tips and explanations in each chapter. Read more

Review:although written by the creator of C++, the examples are bad written and not comprehensive. It seems that the writer documented as much as possible, but on the expanse of thorough explanations and examples. Read more

Review:This textbook is extremely well written. I got it when I was learning C and it was perfectly suited to this - I don't have any criticisms. It made me realize that there are some textbooks that are a class above the majority and that the time spent finding the good ones will quickly be repaid. Read more

Review:I had gotten a different C Programming book that wasn't as clear cut and good for beginners, but this is a perfect way to introduce C to those learning on their own like myself. I would recommend this without hesitation. Read more

Review:This is great book for learning C++!! It talks about the topic in very understandable wording, then goes into a sample coding project, giving adequate descriptions concerning what is going on in the code.

Review:First and foremost, this is an excellent book. Everything is explained very well with not too much "fluff". I found a few errors in the text but that's to be expected in any programming book.

Now the reason I gave it only 4 stars is because of the style of the code. He uses "thisVar" or "this_var" in programs and many times uses both in the same program! The same for braces. He goes from same-line braces to line-after braces many times in the same program!

For those unaware, that's... Read more

Review:This book is a good introductory course to the c++ programming language. Although I do not consider myself an absolute beginner for programming, I must admit that the material in this book consolidates what I know, and what I don't know. The balance between code structure over general problem solving signifies how important it is to properly learn a new programming language. It is for this purpose that I take on my free times and devote myself into the book, reading about how others write and st... Read more
