Product Description

Product Description
C++ templates are a revolutionary and flexible way for C++ programmers to create easily re-usable code with a minimum of difficulty. They have become so important that a set of them, called the Standard Template Library (STL), were introduced in the ANSI C/C++ Standard of summer 1995. This package includes many templates that programmers can immediately integrate into their programmes, along with complete instructions for using them and expanding on them to create new templates. The templates cover such areas as lists, stacks, queues, binary trees, passing, fuzzy logic, sets, matrices and measured quantities.

2.0 out of 5 stars Useful in spite of serious flaws., 14 May 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: C++ Templates and Tools (Paperback)
Experienced C++ programmers will be able to figure out many of the typos and other errors, such as a backward typedef (p.11), a parameter name change (p.12), and == where != was intended (p.219). More disturbing are some surprisingly naive coding techniques, such as assignment operators returning void (p.318), bizarre sequences of do-nothing statements (p.312), integer exponentiation by repeated multiplication (p.329), and strange packaging of unrelated constants (p.305).

Despite its serious flaws, this book contains a number of useful ideas and techniques, and emphasizes numberical techniques that are ignored by many C++ books. I recommend it as supplement to the experienced programmer's library of C++ books.

1.0 out of 5 stars Incomplete Template Information; Code doesn't link, 26 Nov 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: C++ Templates and Tools (Paperback)
I bought this book as there are not many books that focuses on templates. As such, I was quite disappointed that only the first chapter talked about templates in general. Also, different C++ compilers treat templates differently (e.g. Unix vs. Visual C++). Examples, getting code to compile under both would have been quite helpful/useful.

The template library offered did not link under Visual C++ - some files were just missing from the disk!! There is an executable given that tests the library - but so what!! I assumed the author tested his code!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book on C++ templates!, 27 Aug 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: C++ Templates and Tools (Paperback)
Before I checked out this book, I didn't understand templates very well. This book lays out its subject material with clear, practical examples. It covers more advanced topics such as red-black binary trees, data compression (Huffmann), genetic methods, and more. It does all of this using C++ templates. NOW I understand templates very well! This is definitely NOT a book for the beginner, but a seasoned professional will gain invaluable information from this book. If you need a better understanding of templates, or if you need a good blueprint for a high-efficiency container class, this book is for you.
