Textbooks
The following books are recommended (not required). The course will follow primarily the order of Ford and Topp. Some of the lectures are based on material in Koenig and Moo. Students should also have available a C++ reference book, such as those by Malik or Stroustrup, and use on-line reference material.-
Data Structures with C++ Using STL, 2nd edition
Ford and Topp, Prentice Hall -
Accelerated C++
Koenig and Moo, Addison-Wesley -
C++ Programming
D.S. Malik, Thomson Learning -
The C++ Programming Language, 3rd edition
Bjarne Stroustrup, Addison-Wesley
Web Resources
Here are several websites you should find helpful. Feel free to search for and share other web resources.- 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. - http://www.fredosaurus.com/notes-cpp/index.html

In addition to the TA Office Hours, you may also want to check out:-
Advising & Learning Assistance Center Drop in Tutoring
- RPI's chapter of the
Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) offers drop-in tutoring
(see schedule for more details)
- RPI's chapter of Upsilon Pi Epsilon (UPE) offers CS tutoring to undergraduates on a one-on-one basis. Students should send an email to telling us what class they need help with and what times they're available for tutoring. We'll do our best to meet their time-constraints.
