C++ (Computer program language)

Contents:

Building stable systems: Exception handling; Defensive programming -- Standard C++ library: Strings in depth; Iostreams; Templates in depth; Generic algorithms; Generic containers -- Special topics: Runtime type identification; Multiple inheritance; Design patterns; Concurrency.

Summary: In this volume, [the authors] look at more advanced features, with an eye towards developing techniques and ideas that produce robust C++ programs. [The authors'] goals in this book are to: present the material a simple step at a time, so the reader can easily digest each concept before moving on; teach "practical programming" techniques that you can use on a day-to-day basis. -Introd.
