**************







This book introduces C++ as an object-oriented programming language. No previous knowledge of C or any other programming language is assumed.

Readers who have already been exposed to a high-level programming language (such as C or Pascal) will be able to skip over some of the earlier material in this book.

Although the book is primarily designed for use in undergraduate computer science courses, it will be equally useful to professional programmers and hobbyists who intend to learn the language on their own.

The entire book can be easily covered in 10-15 lectures, making it suitable for a one-term or one-semester course. It can also be used as the basis of an intensive 4-5 day industrial training course.

Structure of the Book

The book is divided into 12 chapters. Each chapter has a flat structure, consisting of an unnumbered sequence of sections, most of which are limited to one or two pages. The aim is to present each new topic in a confined space so that it can be quickly grasped. Each chapter ends with a list of exercises.

Answers to all of the exercises are provided in an appendix. Readers are encouraged to attempt as many of the exercises as feasible and to compare their solutions against the ones provided.

For the convenience of readers, the sample programs presented in this book (including the solutions to the exercises) and provided in electronic form.....
