Most people catch on faster when they actually DO something, so "C++ For Dummies" includes a CD-ROM that gives you all you need to start programming (except the guidance in the book, of course), including: Dev-C, a full-featured, integrated C++ compiler and editor you install to get down to business The source code for the programs in the book, including code for BUDGET, programs that demonstrate principles in the book Documentation for the Standard Template Library Online C++ help files
Written by Stephen Randy Davis, author of "C++ Weekend Crash Course, C++ for Dummies," takes you through the programming process step-by-step. You'll discover how to: Generate an executable Create source code, commenting it as you go and using consistent code indentation and naming conventions Write declarations and name variables, and calculate expressions Write and use a function, store sequences in arrays, and declare and use pointer variables Understand classes and object-oriented programming Work with constructors and destructors Use inheritance to extend classes Use stream I/O Comment your code as you go, and use consistent code indentation and naming conventions Automate programming with the Standard Template Library (STL)
"C++for Dummies 5th Edition" is updated for the newest ANSI standard to make sure you're up to code.
