C++ Programming Language, The

Good Book

Bjarne Stroustrup has this intuitive, no-nonsense way of explaining things. He keeps emphasizing the philosophy of working with the C++ language to achieve performance, and I think this is a valid philosophy indeed! Truly, it makes sense. I myself have been guilty of using low-level C mechanisms to 'extract higher performance'. Hard though it might be to accept to several people, the C++ std libs might offer far better design and speed!The prose is straightforward, and the examples are no-frills code segments that directly get to the point. Excellent book!

I you want to learn C++ language, then you have to read this book

Great paper, print & bind quality of US paperback version.

What's not to like? An essential read for anyone learning C++! Owned multiple copies of this, and great to have it on kindle.

Coming from the creator of the language, this book is a must-have reference for the professional C++11 programmer. Thoroughly updated for C++11, this epic describes and uses the latest standardized features of the language. This book is to C++11, what I sorely miss with K&R with C99 and C11. The author's commitment to the evolution and learning of the language is truly commendable. It makes you aware of all language features and many library features.Currently only available is the pricey US edition. The release of an Indian edition would make the book affordable to more students and junior professionals.

Nice book on C++. Recommended by a colleague who is an expert on C++. Initially difficult to comprehend but you will find it useful gradually. Better to buy kindle version as it is cheaper than hard copy version

Amazing to be oart of this great design called C++ .the author Bjarne discusses at length various features if C++

I thought that I knew C++ until I came across some code that I didn't understand. So far this book hasn't covered the concepts that I've seen but I'm only 50% the way through. This book covers everything that you need to know about C++11. I might have to get a successive edition.

Gostei de tudo. Excelente

Es un excelente libro que, como su propio autor nos lo deja saber, no pretende enseñar el lenguaje desde el inicio sino servir de referencia para profundizar en el lenguaje con conceptos, usos, bibliotecas, además de consejos.El libro da por hecho que has tenido cierto acercamiento con C++, por lo que es más para usuarios intermedios o avanzados.Aunque considero que los ejemplos mostrados son suficientes, me hubiese gustado algunos más en ciertas secciones.Sin duda, un libro que todo programador interesado en C++ debería tener.

英語もシンプルでわかりやすい。全部を読む必要はなく、自分の興味のある箇所だけ読むと良い。Kindle版だと、ソースコードのみ読みことも可能で、それだけでもC++の理解が深まる。

I have read few other C++ reference/ tutorial books. However, I have always felt, that that was some lack of understanding of C++ philosophy. Just like the author mentioned, I became a guy who wastes a lot of time dealingwith detail things. Each line of code show you how C++ should be used. To appreciate what this book want to say,reader should have more computer programming knowledge of year 2 University stduents.(I mean over Diploma)It is really good reference but It shuld not be a tutorial book for beginners. Beginners should read 'ProgrammingPrinciples and Practice Using C++' .
