Summary

This is a no frills version of the best-selling Programming & Problem Solving with C++, 2/e. Programming in C++, offering a straightforward introduction to programming that is intended for non-major programming students. Although this second edition incorporates numerous changes (conformance to ISO/ANSI standard C++, & an earlier introduction to classes, data abstraction, & object-oriented concepts) one thing has not changed: their commitment to the students. In addition, data abstraction & abstract data types (ADTs) are explained in conjunction with the C++ class mechanism, forming a natural lead-in to the important topics of object-oriented programming.In reference to object-oriented programming, Programming in C++ has taken a more heterogeneous approach in which both functional decomposition & object-oriented design are presented as design tools.
