This book expores the design, portability and efficiency of C++ programs, while solving the exercises found in the definitive C++ reference, The C++ Programming Language, by Bjarne Stroustrup. Providing complete, working solutions to each exercise, and with strict attention to both efficiency and portability, Hansen has produced an excellent source of tested, usable, and documented C++ code. C++ was designed and implemented as a superset of C which retains the efficiency and notational convenience of C, while providing facilities for type checking, data abstraction, operator overloading, and object-oriented programming. Up-to-the-minute revisions to the C++ language are discussed in the text, specifically: *the lastest modifications available through Release 2.0 of C++ translator *the newest features to the C++ language since the publication of Stroustrup's book The C++ Answer Book includes numerous examples and a significant amount of code which will assist all programmers who want to expand their applications of the C++ language.Therefore, this text is essential reading for students and professional programmers interested in the lastest developments in C++ and provides models especially helpful for those learning the language on their own. 0201114976B04062001
