An Introduction to Programming by the Inventor of C++.
Programming: Principles and Practice Using C++, Third Edition, will help anyone who is willing to work hard learn the fundamental principles of programming and develop the practical skills needed for programming in the real world. Previous editions have been used successfully by many thousands of students.
This revised and updated edition:
Assumes that your aim is to eventually write programs that are good enough for others to use and maintain
Focuses on fundamental concepts and techniques, rather than on obscure language-technical details
Is an introduction to programming in general, including procedural, object-oriented, and generic programming, rather than just an introduction to a programming language:
Covers both contemporary high-level techniques and the lower-level techniques needed for efficient use of hardware
Will give you a solid foundation for writing useful, correct, type-safe, maintainable, and efficient code
Programming is the art of expressing solutions to problems so that a computer can execute those solutions. Much of the effort in programming is spent finding and refining solutions. Often, a problem is only fully understood through the process of programming a solution for it. This book is for someone who has never programmed before but is willing to work hard to learn. It helps you understand the principles and acquire the practical skills of programming using the C++ programming language. It can also be used by someone with some programming knowledge who wants a more thorough grounding in programming principles and contemporary C++.
Why would you want to program? Our civilization runs on software. Without understanding software, you are reduced to believing in “magic” and will be locked out of many of the most interesting, profitable, and socially useful technical fields of work. When I talk about programming, I think of the whole spectrum of computer programs from personal computer applications with GUIs (graphical user interfaces), through engineering calculations and embedded systems control applications (such as digital cameras, cars, and cell phones), to text manipulation applications as found in many humanities and business applications. Like mathematics, programming – when done well – is a valuable intellectual exercise that sharpens our ability to think. However, thanks to feedback from the computer, programming is more concrete than most forms of math and therefore accessible to more people. It is a way to reach out and change the world – ideally for the better. Finally, programming can be great fun.
Is primarily designed for people who have never programmed before, but even seasoned programmers have found previous editions useful as an introduction to more effective concepts and techniques:
Covers a wide range of essential concepts, design and programming techniques, language features, and libraries
Uses contemporary C++ (C++20 and C++23)
Covers the design and use of both built-in types and user-defi ned types, complete with input, output, computation, and simple graphics/GUI
Offers an introduction to the C++ standard library containers and algorithms
