UPDATED! All material is up-to-date with the latest information about the C++ language
- UPDATED! Introduction to C++ 11 in the context of C++ 98 includes new integer types, the auto type, raw string literals, strong enumerations, nullptr, ranged for loop, conversion between strings and integers, member initializers, and constructor delegation.
- Chapter 1 includes a new short introduction to reading data from a file text, allowing students to solve relevant, complex problems early on in the text.
- Chapter 12 has a new section that teaches students to use stringstream to convert between string and other data types.
- Chapter 13 now describes tail recursion and contains a new example on mutual recursion.
- Additional material has been added throughout the text on sorting, the Standard Template Library, iterators, and exception handling.
- An appendix has been added that introduces the std::array class, regular expressions, threads, and smart pointers.
- REVISED! Errata has been corrected.
Pedagogical features facilitate learning a complex programming language
- 15 Programming projects have been added to the text that challenge readers to design and implement a C++ program to solve a problem.
A companion website provides supplementary information to ease the learning process
- 5 VideoNotes have been added to the companion site that explain programming concepts presented in the text in step-by-step video tutorials. These videos allow students to reinforce major concepts and view the entire problem-solving process outside of the classroom. VideoNotes are indicated by an icon in the text.
