Reviews

[Jeremiah Frick · Rating 4 out of 5]

The best possible reference for those who are already competent C/C++ developers and just need a quick reference as necessary. This book is always on my desk, while larger books collect dust on my shelves. I can not stress enough how great a reference this is for C/C++ developers.

[Esmaeil Vakili · Rating 1 out of 5]

As far as I being more experienced in C++ programming I found this book and other books from Herbert Schildt could not be a good reference for learning C++. So I don't recommend them any more.
