C++ is a flexible, powerful programming language with hundreds of
thousands of applications. However, the knowledge of how to take
advantage of its full potential comes only with time and experience.
That’s where this book comes in. Think of it as a “cookbook” for solving
your programming problems, much as The Joy of Cooking is a guide to
solving your dinner dilemmas.
C++ Timesaving Techniques For Dummies is a book for the beginning-toadvanced
C++ programmer who needs immediate answers to the problems
that crop up in the professional software-development world. I
assume that you have prior programming experience, as well as experience
specifically with the C++ programming language. “Fluff” — like discussions
of looping structures or defining variables, or the basics of
compiling applications — is kept to a minimum here. Instead, I offer
quick, step-by-step instructions for solving specific problems in C++.
Each technique includes example code — which you are welcome to use
in your own applications, or modify as you see fit. This is literally a case
of “steal this code, please.” C++ is a language that lends itself well to
component-based design and implementation. This means that you can
take a piece from here and a piece from there to implement the solution
that you have in mind.
C++ Timesaving Techniques For Dummies is not an operating-systemspecific
(or even compiler-specific) book. The techniques and code that
you find here should work on all compilers that support the standard
C++ language, and on all operating systems for which a standard compiler
exists. This book is intended to be as useful to the Unix programmer
as to the Microsoft Windows programmer, and just as useful for programming
with X-windows as it is for .Net. |
