Two good C++ books

February 6, 2009

If you want to learn or improve your knowledge of C++, you should take a look at these two books:

  • H. Schildt, C++: A Beginner’s Guide, Second edition, McGraw-Hill.
  • H. Schildt, C++: The Complete Reference, Fourh edition, McGraw-Hill.

Thanks to a friend of mine (mfoxdogg of #blendercoders@freenode.net) who suggested them to me!

    I would add:

    1. C++ Primer (4th Edition) by Stanley B. Lippman (very good)
    2. C++ FAQs (2nd Edition) by Marshall P. Cline
    3. Effective C++ by Scott Meyers

    and off course:

    3. The C++ Programming Language by Bjarne Stroustrup

    They used to call that author “S*hi**t”, or something to that effect, way back when on the C newsgroups. I’d at least tread carefully.
