Object-oriented programming is fast becoming the only way to program flexible, speed efficient code. This book focuses on learning Turbo C++ and object-oriented programming with no prior knowledge of C. It takes readers step-by-step in a friendly, easy-to-follow style of learning about classes, objects, and all the aspects of object-oriented programming.
"Artful Making" offers the first proven, research-based framework for engineering ingenuity and innovation. This book is the result of a multi-year collaboration between Harvard Business School professor Robert Austin and leading theatre director and playwright Lee Devin. Together, they demonstrate striking structural similarities between theatre artistry and production and today's business projects--and show how collaborative artists have mastered the art of delivering innovation "on cue," on immovable deadlines and budgets. These methods are neither mysterious nor flaky: they are rigorous, precise, and--with this book's help--absolutely learnable and reproducible. They rely on cheap and rapid iteration rather than on intensive up-front planning, and with the help of today's enabling technologies, they can be applied in virtually any environment with knowledge-based outputs. Moreover, they provide an overarching framework for leveraging the full benefits of today's leading techniques for promoting flexibility and innovation, from agile development to real options.
Marketed as the only beginning DOS game programming book on the market, this how-to guide leads readers through the game development process with game design basics. Another addition to the successful Teach Yourself series, it includes many sample game programming techniques such as joy-stick control and use of graphics. The disk offers sample source code from the book.
This book emphasizes using VC++ tools and wizards to generate code. Code examples are augmented with C++ language sidebars. Readers who need a refresher on the language or want to go further "under the hood" will have a context, while those who don't can easily skip that coverage. The revision includes more information throughout on Microsoft Foundation Classes (MFC).
By the middle of the first chapter, readers can create their first program! This title gives an overview of the basics of the C++ programming language and moves readers directly into creating applications.

Sams Teach Yourself Object Oriented Programming in 21 Days differs from other OOP books in two main ways. Many classic OOP books are designed for software engineers and teach at an academic level. Sams Teach Yourself Object Oriented Programming in 21 Days presents accessible, user-friendly lessons designed with the beginning programmer in mind. Other OOP books work to present both OOP and to teach a programming language (for example: Object-Oriented Programming in C++). Although Sams Teach Yourself Object Oriented Programming in 21 Days uses Java to present the examples, the book is designed to present concepts that apply to any OOP environment.
