 Useful C++ Resources

These are only a few of the resources that I have found useful in studying C++. Please let me know if there are others that you feel will especially benefit novice C++ programmers and I will include a link here.

The full source code for the static library used in the book . You will need to build a static library from the source code provided with your compiler.
This is the unmodified source. I needed to make a small change to one file to sucessfully compile it on my system.

In addition to the exercises in the book, I am working on these programs.

Books

There have literally been hundreds of books written about learning C++. When I first became interested in the language, I was not sure which books would be best for me. Apart from the book I'm studying now, I own several other books that continue to be helpful. These include:

The C++ Programming Language -The definitive guide by the creator of C++.

The Design and evolution of C++ - Also written by the creator of C++.

Accelerated C++ Practical Programming by example

Problem Solving, Abstraction and Design using C++

C++ - How to Program

C++ in Plain English

The C++ Answer Book - A useful companion to The C++ Programming Language

Game Coding - Although not a tutorial for novices it is written for people who want to develop game coding skills in C++.

Before buying a new book, I recommend you read the published review of it by the Association of C & C++ Programmers (ACCU). Look here to find further information.
