Product Description
Now in its fourth edition, C++ Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design remains the definitive text for CS1 courses. Best-selling author D.S. Malik employs a student-focused approach, using complete programming examples to teach introductory programming concepts. This fourth edition has been enhanced to further demonstrate the use of OOD methodology, to introduce sorting algorithms (bubble sort and insertion sort), and to present additional material on abstract classes. In addition, the exercise sets at the end of each chapter have been expanded to include several calculus and engineering-related exercises. All programs have been written, compiled, and quality-assurance tested with Microsoft Visual C++ .NET, available as an optional compiler with this text. C++ Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, Fourth Edition is the ideal text to motivate your students as they learn the theory behind programming.

 In Great Condition October 22, 2008
The book was exactly as described. Is in great condition and saved me a bunch of money instead of buying it through my campus bookstore. Delivery was fast. Will order from them again.
 gets point across but takes forever to present simple concepts October 20, 2008
This is a good C++ book, it gets the point across and has many great examples. The main problem with it is that it takes forever to explain a concept that could have easily presented in less than a fraction of the space. I used it for a C++ class because it was required for the course but I have other, better books in C++ programming.
C++ September 29, 2008
this was sold at a great price, due to the fact there is a more recent edition, but it worked just fine. great way to save like 80 to 100
 so-so July 5, 2008
this isn't worth the price. it's comprehensive, but often belaboredly so. there are concepts that are introduced too early in the book and might not be of immediate use to the beginner. this book could be more concise, physically lighter, and cheaper.
Great Book For Understanding C++ June 25, 2008
Whenever I go to learn a new language, I always look to see whether there is a book from Thompson's, 'From Problem Analysis to Program Design' series available on that language. This style of textbook always seems to get it right when it comes to academic learning.
After trying a couple of C++ texts, I found that with this particular book, I could understand those niggly bits of the language that can be very hard to explain/learn. This book has brought me much further than I was able to go with other texts. Clear explanations and useful case studies make for the best way to learn a language. Especially the case studies, as they show you how you can use what you have learnt constructively.
My advice: learn C++ with this book, and use C++ Primer Plus (5th Edition) as a reference companion.
