Thinking in C++ Vol 2 - Practical Programming
Prev Home Next

General C++

The C++ Programming Language, 3rd edition, by Bjarne Stroustrup (Addison Wesley 1997). To some degree, the goal of the book that you re currently holding is to allow you to use Bjarne s book as a reference. Since his book contains the description of the language by the author of that language, it s typically the place where you ll go to resolve any uncertainties about what C++ is or isn t supposed to do. When you get the knack of the language and are ready to get serious, you ll need it.

C++ Primer, 3rd Edition, by Stanley Lippman and Josee Lajoie (Addison Wesley 1998). Not that much of a primer anymore; it s evolved into a thick book filled with lots of detail, and the one that I reach for along with Stroustrup s when trying to resolve an issue. Thinking in C++ should provide a basis for understanding the C++ Primer as well as Stroustrup s book.

Accelerated C++, by Andrew Koenig and Barbara Moo (Addison Wesley, 2000). Takes you through C++ by programming topic instead of language feature. Excellent introductory book.

The C++ Standard Library, by Nicolai Josuttis (Addison Wesley, 1999).
Readable tutorial and reference for the entire C++ library, including STL. Assumes familiarity with language concepts.

STL Tutorial and Reference Guide, 2nd Edition, by David R. Musser et al (Addison Wesley, 2001). Gentle but thorough introduction to the concepts underlying STL. Contains an STL reference manual.

The C++ ANSI/ISO Standard. This is not free, unfortunately (I certainly didn t get paid for my time and effort on the Standards Committee in fact, it cost me a lot of money). But at least you can buy the electronic form in PDF for only $18 at https://www.ncits.org/cplusplus.htm.
