C++ Programming Professional Made Easy: Expert C++ Programming Language Success in a Day for Any Computer User! Paperback – February 9, 2015

In the face of so many positive reviews I felt compelled to point out some of the defects in this book.The book does not cover C++. It tells you how to write C using a C++ compiler. It doesn't start to consider topics which allow C++ to be used in an object oriented way. Worse still some of the comments in the book are the antithesis of modern best practices. Since so much of the C++ language is missing the author could surely have left out the Goto command. It is now 47 years since Dijkstra published his paper "Go To Statement Considered Harmful" so this is not even just a modern best practice. Goto should only be used by professional drivers on a closed course.If you are in a situation where you must learn how to write a little bit of C in the fastest possible time, and you don't care about becoming a professional programmer, this book could be useful, especially at the Kindle price.

Good

I found this to be a useful and concise introduction to C++. I wish it went more into object-oriented features, but otherwise it is an excellent place for beginners to start learning the language.

This is a brief but serviceable introduction to c++ for beginners. The term "Professional" in the title is misleading, however. This is a beginner's guide, not a professional treatise.

This is for beginners, do not go by number of starts,

For the price (at the time it was $20.98), I would not recommend this book. It covers only introductory material, and (as one user pointed out) mostly C in C++. There really isn't much C++ in this book; C is the base language, and a proper book on C++ would cover the object-oriented facets of C++. Another thing I didn't like about this book, was that the formatting was off. You would have arrows (in diagrams) that were trying to point to something, but were offset to much and pointed at something else; it's not professionally made.If you are looking to get your feet wet in C programming, you could probably find all the information in this book online. For the price I bought it at, it's certainly not worth it.

This book was not for me as I have programmed in C and Java as well as used C++ in Arduino IDE. I was really hoping for more content to explain C++ in areas I struggle to understand such as constructors. For someone new to C and or C++ this is a great beginner book. Fortunately I found a Cplusplus tutorial on line that met my needs. For beginners there is a great IDE for writing C++ programs called dev-c++ and it is absolutely free.

gave the basics very well. easy to follow. great intro book.
