C++ is an object-oriented programming language commonly adopted by would-be programmers. This book explores the basic development concepts and techniques of C++ and explains the “how” and “why” of C++ programming from the ground up.
You’ll discover what goes into creating a program, as well as how to put the various pieces together, deal with standard programming challenges, handle debugging, and make it all work.
- Details the basics of C++ programming and explores the “how” and “why” of this object-oriented language
- Addresses the various components that go into creating a program with C++
- Walks you through common challenges of C++ programming
Assuming no prior experience, Beginning Programming with C++ For Dummies is a fun and friendly guide to learning the C++ language.
