Object-Oriented Programming Using C++ (Addison-Wesley Object Technology Series) - Softcover

Object-Oriented Programming Using C++, Second Editionprovides the experienced programmer with a clear and thorough introduction tothe object-oriented paradigm using ANSI C++. Each chapter introduces you tospecific C++ language features that support object-oriented programmingconcepts, including the most recent additions to the language such as STL,namespaces, RTTI, and the bool type. Best-selling author and C++ authority,Ira Pohl, employs his trademark approach of "dissection" todemonstrate key programming elements and idioms and to teach you how toevaluate tradeoffs and make critical design choices. Features *Reflects the latest developments in the C++ ANSI standard includingsubstantial detail on the new STL libraries. *Explains how an object-oriented programming concept is supported by alanguage feature. *Teaches by example, introducing you to full working programs right fromthe start. *Incorporates interactive, proven exercises to help check your understandingof key OO concepts and put them into practice. *Provides code for all example programs covered in the book, as well asadjunct programs that illustrate points made in the book. 0201895501B04062001
