Learning C++ (material)

Learning C++ (material)

Learning C++ (material)

(OP)
Anyone know where I could find a good material for learning C++ programming?

I would rather prefer if it was by linux

RE: Learning C++ (material)

Stephen Prata's C++ Primer Plus

(OP)
I believe it will perfectly do. ThankYou

RE: Learning C++ (material)

If you are new to programming or if you have experience in other languages and are new to C++, these books are highly recommended.

C++ Primer+ (Stanley Lippman, Josée Lajoie, and Barbara E. Moo) (updated for C++11) Coming at 1k pages, this is a very thorough introduction into C++ that covers just about everything in the language in a very accessible format and in great detail. The fifth edition (released August 16, 2012) covers C++11.

Accelerated C++ (Andrew Koenig and Barbara Moo) This basically covers the same ground as the C++ Primer, but does so on a fourth of its space. This is largely because it does not attempt to be an introduction to programming, but an introduction to C++ for people who've previously programmed in some other language. It has a steeper learning curve, but, for those who can cope with this, it is a very compact introduction into the language. (Historically, it broke new ground by being the first beginner's book using a modern approach at teaching the language.)

Thinking in C++ (Bruce Eckel) Two volumes:second is more about standard library, but still very good

Programming: Principles and Practice Using C++ (Bjarne Stroustrup) An introduction to programming using C++ by the creator of the language. A good read, that assumes no previous programming experience, but is not only for beginners.

RE: Learning C++ (material)

If you have a good foundation in C and want a no nonsense introduction to the core parts of C++, C++ The Core Language is pretty good. It is actually an O'Reilly book from back when that used to mean something.
