With completely new material, master programmer Herb Schildt helps the C++ programmer fine tune his/her programming skills. He takes the C++ programmer into advanced topics such as Run Time Type Identifying (RTTI), sparse arrays, stacks, and expression parsing. He also gives readers a microscopic view of the powerful, object-oriented C++ string class, explaining how it functions, and how to exploit its many capabilities.
C++ is a powerful, much sought after programming language, but can be daunting to work with, even for engineering professionals. Why is this book so useful? Have you ever wondered:- How do keywords like static and virtual change their meanings according to context?- What are the similarities and differences between Pointers and References, Pointers and Arrays, Constructors and Copy Constructors, Nested and Local Inner Classes?- Why is Multiple Interface Inheritance seen to be beautiful but Multiple Implementation Inheritance considered evil?- When is Polymorphism Static or Dynamic, Bounded or Unbounded?Answers on these questions, and much more, are explained in this book, Cybernetics in C++. What makes this text so different and appealing in comparison to existing books on the market?- The Bulleted style, as opposed to Prose, produces results much faster, both in learning and reference- Rules of Thumb, and further expert Tips are given throughout in how to optimise your code- The Prospective Evils sections tell you what to avoid- The thorough coverage ensures you will be trained to expert level in each of Imperative, Procedural, Memory & Resource Management, Object Oriented and Generic ProgrammingCybernetics in C++ combines a theoretical overview and practical approach in one book, which should prove to be a useful reference for computer scientists, software programmers, engineers and students in this and related field.
Master programmer Herb Schildt shows C and C++ developers how to take advantage of Windows 95's most powerful and advanced features in order to create powerful applications with a professional look and feel. More than just a study guide, this book encourages active learning. Guiding readers through application development, Schildt also presents code examples in C and C++.
The author of this text applies C++ to a wide variety of high-powered; practical applications; each focusing on a different aspect of the language. Examples range from a garbage collector subsystem and a thread control panel to AI-based searches and more. --
A new series has been developed out of the need to provide experienced programmers with expert annotations showing how to implement and customize C/C++ scripts, code snippets, and programs. The CD-ROM contains all of the code elements and applications from the book, organized in a simple directory structure.
