More About This Textbook

Overview

With C++ gaining a stronghold in the engineering and scientific communities. Bronson's timely new book makes C++ accessible to first level engineering students. Featuring a wealth of practical, engineering-oriented examples and applications, the book teaches the fundamentals of the C++ language with a gradual refinement of programming skills from a procedural to an object orientation.

Editorial Reviews

Booknews
A textbook for a course of one or two semesters teaching programming in the computer language that has failed to infiltrate engineering as thoroughly as many other fields. Begins with procedural programming and advances to object orientation as rapidly as the pedagogical framework allows, but the section on object oriented programming can be bypassed in favor of one on data structures. The emphasis throughout is on solving problems, software engineering, and applications. The 3.5<"> disk contains the source code. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.

    Description is not accurate

    I looked for this book in a lot of different locations. I bought it from B&N because of the description. I found out when the book arrived it is not correct. The feature tab show Appendix E, F, G and H. These Appendix's do not exist. The main reason for buying from B&N was they were the only ones to show any sort of solutions to the chapter exercises.

    Also the preface explains you can go to the Cengage site and download the solutions. This of course is not the case. You must be an instructor to download any of the information on this book.

    Very misleading!!!! B&N fix your description
