Synopsis

For undergraduate-level courses in C++ programming in departments of Computer Science, Computer Information Systems, Information Management, and Management Science.

Pure C++ Programming is the second book in the Pure C and C++ textbook series. Intended for students with computer skills and basic knowledge of the C programming language, it starts with a C to C++ transition chapter, moves to the C++ introductory/intermediate level, and then moves up to more complex C++ concepts.Pure C++ Programming is designed to fill the significant gap between other available C++ books that jumps from the simplistic “for dummies” books to reference books and manuals for experienced programmers. Current, accurate, and rich with diagrams and complete example programs, the text is a general purpose C++ text―designed for students with computer skills, but no experience with C++ programming. The text focuses on “pure” C++ language concepts and syntax according to current standards―and not on programming design techniques, program development methodologies, specific business or science applications, or any specific compilers or development environments. This general purpose approach provides students with a solid C++ foundation―so they can apply C++ programming to a variety of environments, and can move on to more advanced/reference type books and compiler help facilities with ease and confidence.

About this title

From the Back Cover

Pure C++ Programming is the second book in the Pure series of textbooks. This book is designed for beginning students and readers. It starts with the C++ non-object oriented functions and operators, then moves to the object oriented features covering more complex concepts. Emphasis is on C++ language and not on program design or development.

The book includes the following features:

• Chapters are kept short and long topics are presented in two chapters.
• Paragraphs and sections are kept short and interleaved with notes, examples, tables, and figures.
• Each chapter provides partial programs to explain the topic at hand. Programs that are fully explained are also contained in each chapter; however, real-life programming examples are not provided.
• Program examples are kept short and simple. They are designed to complement the topic at hand.
• The pace of coverage is consistent.
• Chapter 15 is a complete menu-driven program.
• Each book contains Microsoft's VISUAL C++ 6.0 Compiler and a CD-ROM containing all of the program examples, source code files, and answers to end-of-chapter questions.
