C++ All-in-One For Dummies

It helps a lot

Easy to comprehend, gifting this to a first time programmer. Coding snippets seem easy to follow

EXCELLENT

This is a good way to get this series of books without hunting for them... It does rely on IDEs for certain tutorials, and it has copious screenshots to help, but other than the IDE aspect.. it's solid, even though it is not using the latest C++ standard. Once you get done with this book set, (one book, many little books inside...it is THICK) I suggest getting "Tour of C++" by the inventor of C++ to catch up on what changed since these books were written.

First few chapters got some bad reviews for verbosity. BFD. I challenge you to cite a better instructional guide on C++ actually accessible to me and Joe Blow. Complete most or all of this book and you will be impressed and probably accomplish your intended goal like I did. No, it didn't make me a pro-programmer. Only businesses with paying customers can do that for you but if you run one and can't afford a developer buy this book now!

My husband was trying to study to take the c+ and this study book was fantastic. It helped him in so many way to pass the exam.

It takes clear steps so that I am capable in progamming C++ by the time I'm finished reading the book. Then I can learn controllers to remotely monitor the use of devices.

If you just started your programmer journey in c++ that book is must have in your book shelf. Easy explain everything what you need to do and why. Example codes wrote inside the book, easy reading.

Great how-to book for beginners. Easy to follow and has links to everything needed to learn C++ coding.

Gosto muito desse livro. Bem completo

Don't be put off by the 'for Dummies' brand. They are not... This is a good omnibus of 6 (I think) previously released books, that cover a wide range of topics for C++, from the classic 'hello world' to more advanced stuff. It's definitely a book to dip into as a reference, rather than read cover-to-cover, but the omnibus nature does mean that the main sections are somewhat self-contained (though do build upon the prior sections). As with most (all?) '.. for Dummies' publications, this is easy to read and has good examples throughout. Some might be put off by the less formal tone though.

Product arrived quickly. This C++ book is wonderful as it explains this complicated language in easy understandable terms. Very happy with the order.

* Physical This book is 892 pages of clear fonts with no coloured diagrams. * Target Audience A Level, H.N.D, Undergraduate, Graduate, Post Graduate, Masters? In my humble opinion, it's aimed from H.N.D to undergraduate level in Computer Science or Electronics and Computing. * Topics Book 1, Getting Started with C++, Book 2, Understanding Objects and Classes, Book 3, Understanding Functional Programming, Book 4, Fixing Problems, Book 5, Advanced Programming, Book 6, Reading and Writing files, Book 7, Advanced Standard Library Usage. * What are the best bits then? A tip here is to grasp OOP, and what it means in clear terms. Do this by visiting Youtube and searching for the '4 pillars of OOP'. These top 10 responses really help! I wanted to return to a task I tried to do but failed in my academic career. This is to learn how to build a simple database in C++, using OOP principles, to expand and contract the number of files, and store the ASCII data on a storage device. I had to know what to aim at as the book doesn't explicitly say how to build this. I needed to read and understand each principle and see where they fit together. The book started very simply, and I thought this isn't good. But it's not afraid to help the reader grow in understanding. It informed me there are even open source compilers, free to download! It took me 5 weeks to get my head around what these ideas and concepts mean and I believe I have cracked it. The book skillfully covers its remit and above this level and gets into library usage and stuff above what I require at the moment. But it's still very helpful. * Summary This is a beautifully written book that makes things easier to comprehend and easy to keep multiple concepts in my mind.
