The author completes instruction in C++ in the first four chapters before moving on to a demonstration of its outstanding contributions to object-oriented methodology.

About this title

From the Back Cover

Object-Oriented Programming Using C++, Second Editionprovides the experienced programmer with a clear and thorough introduction tothe object-oriented paradigm using ANSI C++. Each chapter introduces you tospecific C++ language features that support object-oriented programmingconcepts, including the most recent additions to the language such as STL,namespaces, RTTI, and the bool type. Best-selling author and C++ authority,Ira Pohl, employs his trademark approach of "dissection" todemonstrate key programming elements and idioms and to teach you how toevaluate tradeoffs and make critical design choices.

Features

• Reflects the latest developments in the C++ ANSI standard includingsubstantial detail on the new STL libraries.
• Explains how an object-oriented programming concept is supported by alanguage feature.
• Teaches by example, introducing you to full working programs right fromthe start.
• Incorporates interactive, proven exercises to help check your understandingof key OO concepts and put them into practice.
• Provides code for all example programs covered in the book, as well asadjunct programs that illustrate points made in the book.
