Synopsis

This workbook is useful for any course that teaches introductory programming using the C++ language, as well as for students who need to review basic C++ programming concepts. It is not tied to any particular textbook and may be used on its own. The text provides hundreds of exercises and two sample final examinations that may be assigned by the instructor or used by the student for review. The book focuses on both syntax and basic programming methodologies such as loops, decisions, functions, and so on.

 

The exercises in Workbook for C++ are grouped by concept and contain both elementary and advanced questions, to give students practice in using the techniques of the C++ language and help them write programs more effectively. Most problems should take only a few minutes. Some point out pitfalls to avoid; others consist of two or more parts which look alike but actually contain significant differences. With repeated practice, students will reduce their error rate when programming.
