My favorite C++ book!

I was looking if there is probably a newer edition of this book and couldn't help writing a review about this one. I bought this book back in 1996 while I was visiting a beginner's course in C++ and data structures during my BS studies. The main reason why I bought it was because it is a relatively thin book (about 300 pages) which was very attractive since I wanted to learn the basics only, and quick! This book has almost no diagrams, no colored text and none of the pedagogical structuring which we see so often in other tutorial books. And, believe it or not, this is what makes this book so clear to understand. The chapters are short and well-written. There are lines of C++ code on almost every page. Nothing is explained without some sample code. I've been programming with Java for a long time and I am refreshing my C++ knowledge these days. I don't even think about looking into any other book before I've re-read this one.

By far the best text on the subject

If you enjoyed K & R's C programming text, you'll find the format and style of this book excellent, both as an introduction to the C++ language and a tool for advanced users. I read the book from cover to cover and have not found any other book this fascinating. The authors are excellent writers and tutors. Use it for self-study or as a complete textbook. Ample problems and their solutions are provided. Can't wait for the next edition.
