Object-Oriented Programming Using C++, Third Edition is designed to teach C++ programming, using object-oriented terminology from the start. As in previous editions, this text includes clear, thorough, but not overwhelming program examples which are used to teach the syntax of the C++ language as well as sound programming principles. Expanding on early topics, this text provides extensive coverage to variable declaration and types and the three basic programming structures providing the option to learn topics at varying speeds based on the individual.
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.
