*Recipient of Computer Language 1991 JOLT Cola Productivity Award *One of JOOP Magazine's Top Ten Books of the Decade (three years in a row) *A 1992 Stacey's best-seller *Continued critical acclaim in October 1995 Dr. Dobb's Written by an expert in C++, Advanced C++ Programming Styles and Idioms looks at the design features of the C++ programming language. Assuming a background in the syntax of C++, Coplien shows how to become an expert C++ programmer by learning the idioms of the language. His approach is organized around the abstractions that C++ supports: abstract data types, combining types in inheritance structures, object-oriented programming, and multiple inheritance. Using small, but rich examples, he shows how these abstractions can be combined to use the language effectively. Experienced C++ programmers will appreciate the comprehensive coverage of Release 3.0. 0201548550B04062001
