C++ is a complex language with many subtle facets. This is especially
true when it comes to object-oriented and template programming. The C++
Pocket Reference is a memory aid for C++ programmers, enabling them to
quickly look up usage and syntax for unfamiliar and infrequently used
aspects of the language. The book's small size makes it easy to carry
about, ensuring that it will always be at-hand when needed. Programmers
will also appreciate the book's brevity; as much information as possible
has been crammed into its small pages.
In the C++ Pocket Reference, you will find:
- Information on C++ types and type conversions
- Syntax for C++ statements and preprocessor directives
- Help declaring and defining classes, and managing inheritance
- Information on declarations, storage classes, arrays, pointers,
strings, and expressions
- Refreshers on key concepts of C++ such as namespaces and scope
- More!
C++ Pocket Reference is useful to Java and C programmers making the
transition to C++, or who find themselves occasionally programming in
C++. The three languages are often confusingly similar. This book
enables programmers familiar with C or Java to quickly come up to speed
on how a particular construct or concept is implemented in C++.
Together with its companion STL Pocket Reference, the C++ Pocket
Reference forms one of the most concise, easily-carried,
quick-references to the C++ language available
