The C++ Cookbook will make your path to mastery much shorter. This practical, problem-solving guide is ideal if you’re an engineer, programmer, or researcher writing an application for one of the legions of platforms on which C++ runs. The algorithms provided in C++ Cookbook will jump-start your development by giving you some basic building blocks that you don’t have to develop on your own.
Less a tutorial than a problem-solver, the book addresses many of the most common problems you’re likely encounter–whether you’ve been programming in C++ for years or you’re relatively new to the language. Here are just some of the time-consuming tasks this book contains practical solutions for:
- Reading the contents of a directory
- Creating a singleton class
- Date and time parsing/arithmetic
- String and text manipulation
- Working with files
- Parsing XML
- Using the standard containers
Typical of O’Reilly’s “Cookbook” series, C++ Cookbook is written in a straightforward format, featuring recipes that contain problem statements and code solutions, and apply not to hypothetical situations, but those that you’re likely to encounter. A detailed explanation then follows each recipe in order to show you how and why the solution works. This question-solution-discussion format is a proven teaching method, as any fan of the “Cookbook” series can attest to. This book will move quickly to the top of your list of essential C++ references.
