The book in its fifth edition continues to maintain its simplicity and lucid presentation of C++ concepts using Object Oriented explanations. This edition intends to present refreshed and revived content to its readers with the inclusion and enhanced coverage of topics along with addition of new solved programs and projects.The website accompanying this edition is exhaustive.
I started reading this book and was passing through chapters easily as theory for explanation of topic is in straightforward and simple. But as I was also writing programs written in this book and realized how bad mistakes of this book are. I was reading 2nd edition of this book and programs contain mistakes as it made me unbearable to read further. I read only 1/4 of the book. I will return to this book but after I learn cpp from other better source. And the mistakes explains why there are so many editions of the book. But not gonna ruin my basics by following this book. The c++ book by Bjarne Stroutstroup is a gem. (Then why didn't I go for that from the start -> This book given to me freely by a college student and I thought just to start from it as I heard from some students) but this book is good for definitions only.
