Publisher Comments:

Gary Bronson's A FIRST BOOK OF C++, Fourth Edition, takes a hands-on, applied approach to the first programming language course for students studying computer science. The book begins with procedural programming in C, and then gradually introduces object-oriented programming features and the C++ language syntax that enables first-time programmers to use them.

Synopsis:

Ideal for the beginning programming student, this text begins with procedural programming in C, and then gradually introduces object-oriented programming features and the C++ language syntax. The book provides carefully-developed program examples, programming exercises, and sections identifying common programming errors.
