Alas, it is c++03. On the other hand it's relatively thin and it begins with the standard library (std::vectors, std::sort, std::string) from the first chapters. So I guess it was the first good book that didn't begin with C language from the start.
- colin_mccabe 9y agoGood to see that three decades later, C++ still has a massive inferiority complex about its older brother, C.
- pjmlp 9y agoIt is not an inferiority complex, rather to stop people learning about writing bad code, open to security exploits by default, something that C is pretty good at.
