The C++ Programming Language Still Available

This is a complete rewrite of the most widely read and most trusted book on C++. Based on the ANSI/ISO C++ final draft, this book covers the C++ language, its standard library, and key design techniques as an integrated whole.

"The C++ Programming Language "provides comprehensive coverage of C++ language features and standard library components. For example:

• abstract classes as interfaces
• class hierarchies for object-oriented programming
• templates as the basis for type-safe generic software
• exceptions for regular error handling
• namespaces for modularity in large-scale software
• run-time type identification for loosely coupled systems
• the C subset of C++ for C compatibility and system-level work
• standard containers and algorithms
• standard strings, I/O streams, and numerics

With this third edition, Stroustrup makes C++ even more accessible to those new to the language while adding information and techniques that even expert C++ programmers will find invaluable.

The C++ Programming Language, Third Edition, based on the ISO final draft standard, is a complete rewrite presenting C++ and its standard library as an integrated whole. The book covers the complete C++ language including its C subset and modern features such as abstract classes, templates, exceptions, namespaces, run-time type identification, and the Standard Template Library. This book does far more than merely describe every element of the language. The focus is on how to use the language as a tool for real-world design and programming. In this third edition, Stroustrup makes C++ even more accessible to those new to the language while adding information and techniques that even the most experienced C++ experts find invaluable.
