It doesn't try to teach all there is >to know about C++, in fact you only get a glimpse of the language >and programming in general. However, what you do learn from this >book you will learn well. >The only problem you'll face after reading this book is what to >read next. There are only 'begginners' and 'expert' out there and >you will be neither. I had this problem and ended up getting >myself a copy of 'C++ in 21 days' (it's OK) and then moving up to >'The C++ Language'. Greetings from Cologne Peter E-Mail: karpfenteich AT gmx DOT de
