Other Information

Textbooks

Required book: Koenig and Moo, Accelerated C++, Addison-Wesley

Optional book: D.S. Malik, C++ Programming,Thomson Learning

The course will primarily follow the first book, which is quite dense. The second book covers some of the same material, especially the basics of C++, but much more comprehensively, with many examples and at a slower pace. This second book should be purchased if you are not comfortable with the basics of C++ or if you need extra examples to learn new material.

Web Resources

There are also two very good websites you should find helpful:
  • http://www.sgi.com/tech/stl/
    The STL (standard template library) programmer's guide at SGI is a good resource for questions about vectors, lists, maps, etc.

  • http://www.parashift.com/c++-faq-lite/
    This is an organized summary of the most important FAQ's that have appeared on the C++ newsgroups. Both beginning and advanced students can benefit from it.

Feel free to search for and share other web resources.
