    Comprehensive introduction for Beginners learning C++.
  

*by J***S on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 20 December 2014*

I have bought a number of books to learn computer programming in C++ and C#.I started of with Mike McGrath's book C++ Programming in easy steps (fourth edition). This was fine for the first few chapters, but then the examples wouldn't compile, so I looked around for alternatives.I tried Beginning Programming with C++ for Dummies which comes supplied with a CD for a quick installation of code blocks (for the compiler); but the book got rather theoretical after a few chapters. I eventually settled on two books, namely: Alex Allain's book "Jumping into C++" and Michael Dawson's book reviewed here.The former is very well written and forces you to think for yourself and make up your own programs. Michael Dawson's book majors on the format. Most of us have played computer games of one kind or another - so we understand the format and the reasons for it. This enables me to understand the rationale of C++ in relation to the game requirements and learn a lot aboutC++ programming as I do so.There are cheaper books out there, such as SimpleNeasy Learn C++; or C++ Programming for Beginners; but i need the hand holding I get from Mr. Dawson's book.Most of the books rely on Code Blocks for their compiler. This is free and works fine. The C++ Programming for Beginners book uses a more primitive compiler. Mr Dawson's book uses Microsoft's 'Visual Studio' Express Desktop which is also free and gives you an insight into a really sophisticated compiler which in its professional guise can cost over $12,000.If you are interested in the Visual side of things you could look at Visual C# as illustrated by John Sharp's book "Step by Step with Microsoft Visual C# 2013 which costs about £20.00. This needs a copy of Visual Studio 2013 which costs about £300.00.However, if you join Microsoft's Community you can get this for free for a limited period while you are learning how to use the C# techniques!

Already knew a little c++ ordered this book to get into game coding and half way through my knowledge of c++ has grown great book and a must have to any new people getting into game coding easy to understand and explains each part of code along the way glad I brought it five stars

    Great starting point
  

*by E***T on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 21 September 2010*

After starting C programming at Uni I wanted to expand my knowledge to C++.This book is great for a beginner to the C++ language with good use of examples it covers a lot of the basics.It starts slow but builds up after about half way. Covers the absolute basics from the start and leads up to more advanced ideas.It covers the principals of OOP well with Inheritance and Polymorphism present and the language used is very good.Overall this book is great for the absolute beginner and for some one who is familiar with the very basics (like loops and variables as well as setting up the game screen) and wants to learn some new ideas and advance in the language (with pointers and OOP ideas).All the games are text based so don't expect to be creating a wonderful looking 2D or 3D game, this book is to get the reader to understand the fundamentals of C++ with game development examples.If you already know how to program C++ and want to get on with some game development this isn't the book for you, however if your new to programming or C++ and want the basic before cracking on with creating games this book is great.
