Product Description

Product Description
This book provides instruction for using C in an object-oriented fashion. The book covers the problems likely to arise in a C++ application, explains why C++ is inappropriate for some object-oriented applications, and shows how to do real object-oriented programming (based on a multitasking model) in a C or C++ environment. Using real-world examples throughout, the book relates C++ concepts directly to C, showing how a C++ feature could be implemented in C by presenting code in both languages. Readers will see exactly how the object-oriented methodology works and how it can be implemented in both C and C++.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book for C programers wanting to learn C++, 10 Mar 1999

By A Customer

This was an extremely valuable book for me in learning C++. It will be very helpful for any proficient C programmer in making the transition to object-oriented programming in C++. The book is well written and well organized. Starting with a demonstration of how object-oriented programming can be done in C, Holub brings the reader though the transition to C++ very directly and neatly. The examples he uses are excellent, not the trivial ones you find in many "learning C++" books. The book also effectively teaches good C++ programming practice while you are learning. This is very important since sloppy coding practices can be very hard and painful to unlearn later. The book repays carful study and is well worth the money and time spent.

I do have 3 criticisms of the book: 1) It's out of date. A 2nd edition that brings it up-to-date with Standard C++ would make this the best book of its kind. For the C++ beginner, though, that doesn't detract much from the book's usefullness. Everything in the book will still work. 2) There are numerous typos and minor errors in the example code which can lead to confusion. Being able to find them though, made me feel good. I knew I was really learning the subject. 3) The book would also benefit by having useful exercises at the end of each chapter for a student to perform.

Alan Holub's other book, "Enough Rope to Shoot Yourself in the Foot: Rules for C and C++ Programming" is also very good.

5.0 out of 5 stars A book that clears up a lot C++ syntax, 17 Jun 1997

By A Customer

This book covers details and insight information for a C or C++ programer to much better know C++. Except for chapter one- Object-Oriented Programming in C- I found most chapters are so valuable that you want to read over and over until you fully understand the points that you never think of before. At last, you'll be confident saying you've made a big step in knowing C++ in a systematic way.
