Product Description

Product Description

For Introduction to Programming (CS1) and other more intermediate courses covering programming in C++. Also appropriate as a supplement for upper-level courses where the instructor uses a book as a reference for the C++ language.

This best-selling comprehensive text is aimed at readers with little or no programming experience. It teaches programming by presenting the concepts in the context of full working programs. The text has an emphasis on achieving program clarity through structured and object-oriented programming, software reuse and component-oriented software construction. The Fourth Edition reflects the suggested improvements of a distinguished team of industry professionals and academics.



From the Back Cover

The complete, authoritative DEITEL™ LIVE-CODE™ introduction to C++, Object-Oriented Design (OOD) with the UML™ and Web programming with CGI.

This Fourth Edition of the world's most widely used C++ textbook explains C++'s extraordinary capabilities, presents an optional object-oriented design and implementation case study with the Unified Modeling Language (UML) from the Object Management Group™, and introduces n-tier Web-applications development with CGI.

Dr. Harvey M. Deitel and Paul J. Deitel are the founders of Deitel & Associates, Inc., the internationally recognized corporate-training and content-creation organization specializing in C++, C, Visual C++® .NET, Java™, C#, Visual Basic® .NET, XML, Python, Perl, Internet, Web, .NET and object technologies. The Deitels are the authors of several of the world's best-selling programming-language textbooks, including Java How to Program, 4/e, and Internet & World Wide Web How to Program, 2/e.

In C++ How to Program, 4/e, the Deitels introduce the fundamentals of object-oriented programming and generic programming in C++. Key topics include:

  • Control structures/Functions/Pointers
  • Classes/Objects/Encapsulation
  • OOP/inheritance/Polymorphism
  • Object-Oriented Design with the UML
  • string and vector objects
  • Pointer-based arrays and strings
  • Exception handling/Operator overloading
  • Templates/Data structures/Files/Streams
  • Standard Template Library (STL)
  • Bit and character manipulation
  • Namespaces/Run-Time Type Information
  • N-tier Web applications/CGI/XHTMLTM™

C++ How to Program, 4/e, helps students build real-world C++ applications. It includes:

  • Hundreds of LIVE-CODE™ programs with screen captures that show exact outputs
  • Extensive Internet and World Wide Web resources to encourage further research
  • Hundreds of tips, recommended practices and cautions—all marked with icons

C++ How to Program's teaching resources include Web sites (http://www.deitel.com, http://www.prenhall.com/deitel and http://www.informit.com/deitel) with the book's code examples (also on the enclosed CD) and information for faculty, students and professionals; an optional CD (C++ Multimedia Cyber Classroom, 4/e) with solutions to approximately half the exercises in C++ How to Program, 4/e, interactivity features—including hyperlinks and audio walkthroughs of the code examples.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great reference got better... must have for C++ developers!, 4 Dec 2002
By Paul "paul_e_coyote" (Bournemouth, UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: C++: How to Program (International Edition) (Paperback)
It's the set text for many university courses. It has stuff on UML. It teaches by example. It's colourful and written with insight. For those people studying it will probably have pre-rolled answers to your C++ homework. It even has a CD with the source and freebie software (VC++ 6 - Introductory Edition).

I went through university with the second edition. This forth edition adds more focus on Internet (via CGI), talks through the basics of the STL and applies Object Oriented design. If you want to write truly portable code and want to move away from the sometimes flaky and bloated MFC, then read this.

I still use the second edition at work, but as I do hobbyist programming at home and that copy is all beaten up - I just had to have this copy.

I can't recommend this to anyone highly enough, beginners in C++ or seasoned pros - this book belongs at your side!

4.0 out of 5 stars Good book, sometimes too detailed, 9 Jan 2003
Same as with Java: How to Program, I found this book full of good tips. At some points, though, the book is too detailed and you spend quite a while getting through the text that you don't really need to read. This is particularly true about the first few chapters. Anyhow, as I don't know about any better book on C++ on the market, I certainly recommend this one!

5.0 out of 5 stars Enormous C++ book, 21 Jun 2007
By A. J. HAWKEN "Tony Hawken" (London - UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is absolutely enormous, so I cannot pretend to have read more than a small fraction of it. I recently started to update my C++ knowledge particularly in the changes to the language before and after the new ANSI/ISO standard. I used this book in conjunction with the Quincy 2005 IDE that I downloaded from the Internet.

I think of this book more as a reference book to check on things when my programs go wrong. It is however written as a text-book and has a logical presentation and very clear descriptions.
