Summary
KEY MESSAGE:InStarting Out with C++: Early Objects,Gaddis covers objects and classes early after functions and before arrays and pointers. As with all Gaddis texts, clear and easy-to-read code listings, concise and practical real-world examples, and an abundance of exercises appear in every chapter. Introduction to Computers and Programming; Introduction to C++; Expressions and Interactivity; Making Decisions; Looping; Functions; Introduction to Classes and Objects; Arrays; Searching and Sorting Arrays; Pointers; More About Classes and Object-Oriented Programming; More About Characters, Strings, and the string Class; Advanced File and I/O Operations; Recursion; Polymorphism, Virtual Functions, and Multiple Inheritance; Exceptions, Templates, and the Standard Template Library (STL); Linked Lists; Stacks and Queues; Binary Trees. This text is intended for either a one-semester accelerated introductory course or a traditional two-semester sequence covering C++ programming.
