C++ PROGRAMMING: FROM PROBLEM ANALYSIS TO PROGRAM DESIGN, Sixth Edition remains the definitive text for a first programming language course. D.S. Malik's time-tested, student-centered methodology uses a strong focus on problem-solving and full-code examples to vividly demonstrate the how and why of applying programming concepts and utilizing C++ to work through a problem. This new edition includes updated end-of-chapter exercises, new debugging exercises, an earlier introduction to variables and a streamlined discussion of user-discussion of user-defined functions to best meet the needs of the modern CS1 course. An optional CourseMate brings C++ PROGRAMMING: FROM PROBLEM ANALYSIS TO PROGRAM DESIGN to life with interactive study tools including videos, quizzing, flashcards, and games. The CourseMate's digital Lab Manual offers additional hands-on exercises, allowing students to reinforce critical thinking through practice.
If you are beginner with programming or C++ then this is the book you will need! It explain the concepts in an easy way, followed by examples. This is a great book and I used to understand by just reading it! I advice anyone who want to learn C++ wether it was his first programming language or not, to read it. It will help him/her a lot.
This is a great book and I used to understand by just reading it! I advice anyone who want to learn C++ weather it was his first programming language or not, to read it. It will help him/her a lot. Chapters are well organized, every chapter is written to the maximum detail without redundancy, followed by a rich brief of the chapter, tailed by an excellent set of related questions and problems to solve by writing programs for them which will enhance and reinforce your understanding of the material. I've been reading this book in a Structuring Programming course at the university.
C++ covers a lot of programming concepts which are hard to be understood in other languages such as Pointers etc. According to my perspective, this book is the best book in order to start learning to program. The other good point about the book is that the majority of example are explained and traced which is an important feature for those who are new to programming. Anyone who is eager to gain knowledge of what programming is must read this book.
Read the 7th edition for class. I think it is a pretty good book and it's used for two classes at my school so that's gotta be good. There was some redundancy though, but overall it did help me in the class.
