C in A Nutshell
Learning a language--any language--involves a process wherein you learn to rely less and less on instruction and more increasingly on the aspects of the language you ve mastered. Whether you re learning French, Java, or C, at some point you ll set aside the tutorial and attempt to converse on your own. It s not necessary to know every subtle facet of French in order to speak it well, especially if there s a good dictionary available. Likewise, C programmers don t need to memorize every detail of C in order to write good programs. What they need instead is a reliable, comprehensive reference that they can keep nearby. C in a Nutshell is that reference.
C++ by Dissection presents a thorough introduction to the programming process by
carefully developing working programs to illuminate key features of the C++ programming
language. Program code is explained in an easy-to-follow, careful manner throughout.
The code has been tested on several platforms and is found on the bundled CDrom
accompanying this text. The code in C++ By Dissection can be used with most C++
systems, including those found in operating systems such as MacOS, MS-DOS, OS/2,
UNIX, and Windows.
