Any one who wants to learn C++ may ask how to learn C or C++. The only solution to it is to use text available either in the form of books or websites. C++ Primer by Stanley B. Lippman is an ideal for this. I say it ideal because in 2011 the C++ standards committee issued a major revision to the ISO C++ standard and this book is written in context of these standards. The primary purpose of these standards was to make easier and uniform. This text has another property that most of the text taught the C++ in a sequence in which the programming evolved, that is, they first taught the C and then come to the C++ and its abstract features in more advanced topics usually at the end of the book. An opposite approach is taken here, the features that let the programmers ignore the detailed inherent in low level programming are used here. Of course there is no need to know the C to understand this text. However it is assumed that the reader has some programming experience to write, compile and run a program in some modern block-structure language. And finally, one comment to make is about the compilers: Since the recommendations made by the C++ standards committee, Compiler vendors are working hard to update their compilers. However you may not be sure about which compiler has been updated? Furthermore, most compilers (Fortran compiler for example) may not work properly. So I suggest the readers to use GNU Compiler 4.7.0. Although only a few examples may not compile properly with older compilers, one must think of getting the best out of this book by using the compiler that support all the features introduced in the book so that one may quench one’s thirst of learning the C++. After reading this book one will not wonder that how o learn C or C++. So Click the link blew to download C++ Primer by Stanley B. Lippman 5th edition free.
