About this product

Product Information

Want to learn how to program in C++ immediately? Want to start writing better, more powerful C++ programs today? Accelerated C++'s uniquely modern approach will help you learn faster and more fluently than you ever believed possible. Based on the authors' intensive summer C++ courses at Stanford University, Accelerated C++ covers virtually every concept that most professional C++ programmers will ever use -- but it turns the "traditional" C++ curriculum upside down, starting with the high-level C++ data structures and algorithms that let you write robust programs immediately . Once you're getting results, Accelerated C++ takes you "under the hood," introducing complex language features such as memory management in context , and explaining exactly how and when to use them. From start to finish, the book concentrates on solving problems, rather than learning language and library features for their own sake. The result: You'll be writing real-world programs in no time -- and outstanding code faster than you ever imagined.

  • It's not too hard.

    If you have any trouble understanding the content just reread the book and the 2nd time it's much clearer. You can also look up anything online for more explanation if you're stuck. This book was written before the C++11, '14 updates so it won't cover any of that but is an excellent introduction to programming in C++ the correct way. Lots of people struggle to learn the language because of poor guidance early on. I disagree with some of the other reviews here. This is a great book by a noted author. Those "easier" books can teach you a lot of bad/poor coding habits.

  • Excellent book for your software mindset

    C++ wouldn’t be my choice for a first programming language but since ‘Uncle Bob’ recommends this book to this day, I had to buy and read a copy. Clear. Compelling. Intelligently organized.

  • Very Comprehensive

    This book is good for learning C++ ONLY if you have had prior experience in it. I found some concepts to be hard to read and understand. I liked this book mainly because it gets to the point, and explains the concepts in a very comprehensive way, however this eventualy became frustrating in some parts because their explaination wasn't enough for me to understand.
