C++ how to program
by: deitel & deitel

[olredixsis]

If I'm not mistaken

deitel & deitel are authors of a Java programming language book right?

so is it good to read that book? I mean C++ is a different programming language compared to Java, so are you 100% sure that it is pure C++ (examples and some concepts) only? excluding the fact that some concepts of Java came from C++ and vice versa.

EDIT: I think I asked a nonsense question. Reviewers exist because of that. XD

[blackcoder41]

yeah they wrote java how to program, c++ how to program, so does c# how to program

:D

I found this book in a bookstore.

C++ primer 3rd ed
by Stanley Lippman and Josee Lajoie

Is this book good?

Thanks.

[blackcoder41]

maybe it's a good book, i often see a lot of people on the internet forum recommends it..

[Seraphimsan]

C++ for dummies is a good one.

^ no

Hey thats where I got started on programming...It's ok for a complete novice, but I out grew it in about a week. It's what I'm using to teach my 10 year old brother the basics of c++ programming

what about
Thinking in C++: Introduction to Standard C++, Volume One (2nd Edition) (Vol 1)
Bruce Eckel


Microsoft Visual C++
windows applications by example

I hated this book, they cut too much out of it to make less pages. It leaves you hanging so you have to guess how to use the MFC wizard, this book is good if you already know how to use the MFC and just want to code in examples, but actually learning the MFC from the material is hopeless.

Is this book teaches how to do/implement embedded programming?
