Mastering C++: An Introduction to C++ and Object-Oriented Programming for C and Pascal Programmers

The C++ programming language is introduced with particular emphasis on the techniques used in real-life programs. Requiring little prior knowledge of the C programming language and working from realistic examples, Mastering C++ covers operator overloading and virtual functions, as well as data, pointers, arrays, structured types, input/output, memory management, inheritance, and more.

This updated edition reflects the current state of C++, emphasizing techniques used in existing programs. Using plenty of realistic examples, it covers such topics as operator overloading, virtual functions, pointers, arrays, input/output, inheritance and memory management. Includes new material on templates and exception handling plus a number of pitfalls discovered by the author since publication of the first book.
