Ebook: Programming and Problem Solving With C++

Programming and Problem Solving with C++, Fourth Edition provides an accessible introduction to C++ and object-oriented programming. With straightforward examples and complete case studies, this text helps readers develop good programming habits right from the start. Both algorithmic development and functional decomposition design methodology are emphasized. Function interface design, modular design, data abstraction, and abstract data types are explored in a supportive teaching style. The text discusses metalanguages explicitly, introduces Big-O notation early, and guides students through the C++ classes, encapsulation, information hiding, and object-oriented software development. A chapter on templates and exceptions enables the reader to maximize their potential and master topics once considered too advanced for beginner students. Featuring new exercises and updated problem-solving cases studies throughout, Programming and Problem Solving with C++, Fourth Edition is the essential text for your introductory programming courses.
