Thinking in C++

A book/CD-ROM introduction to the Standard C++ Containers. Each chapter teaches a single concept, or a small group of associated concepts, in such a way that no additional features are relied upon. This second edition contains new examples and exercises, and new chapters on C concepts and basic C++ features. The accompanying CD-ROM contains an even gentler introduction to C concepts necessary to understand C++. The author was a voting member of the C++ Standards Committee for many years. Annotation c.
