Using object-oriented terminology, this work provides readers with a foundation in C++ programming. It uses examples to teach both the syntax of the C++ language and programming principles. It offers an overview of object-oriented programming and C++, and then builds upon this knowledge to teach complex concepts.
Joyce Farrell was formerly a Professor of Computer Information Systems at Harper College in Palatine, Illinois. Prior to joining Harper College, Farrell taught Computer Information Systems at the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point and McHenry County College in Crystal Lake, Illinois. She is the author of many Programming books for Course Technology, a part of Cengage Learning[1]. Her books are widely used as textbooks in higher education institutions.
"When I write my books I use the same language, examples, analogies, and entertaining exercises that made my class sessions fun and made the lessons stick. I was always thrilled when former students would return for a visit and tell me how they were able to solve problems at their new jobs when others were stumped because of the thorough programming backgrounds they got in my courses." -Joyce Farrell
I do not recommend anone to read this book when learning C++ as it does not include some of the important topics. The book keeps and summarises some topics.
