C++ has come a long way and is now adopted in several contexts. Its key strengths are its software infrastructure and resource-constrained applications, including desktop applications, servers, and performance-critical applications, not to forget its importance in game programming. Despite its strengths in these areas, beginners usually tend to shy away from learning the language because of its steep learning curve.
Effective Modern C++ follows the proven guideline-based, example-driven format of Scott Meyers’ earlier books, but covers entirely new material. This book describes how to write effective software using C++11 and C++14—i.e. using modern C++.
Microsoft Visual C# 2013 Step by Step teaches the fundamentals of Microsoft Visual C# 2013. This is a step by step guide to anyone having previous experience in programming but new to C# Programming.

I know where people struggle, and why, and how to make it clear.
The book “Cracking the Coding Interview” is a comprehensive guidebook designed to help individuals prepare for technical interviews at top-tier technology companies such as Google, Microsoft, and Facebook. The book covers a wide range of topics, including data structures, algorithms, system design, and more.
The iPhone is the hottest gadget of our generation, and much of its success has been fueled by the App Store, Apple’s online marketplace for iPhone applications. Over 1 billion apps have been downloaded in the 9 months the App Store has been open, ranging from the simplest games to the most complex business apps.
The C++ Standard Library provides lots of built-in functionality in the form of the Standard Template Library (STL). The STL was created as the first library of generic algorithms and data structures for C++, with four ideas in mind.
This comprehensive best-seller is aimed at readers with little or no programming experience. It teaches by presenting the concepts in
These algorithms are represented in terms of compact implementations in C so that readers can both understand their fundamental properties and implement them in real applications. The method of the analysis of algorithms is quite carefully designed. When appropriate, analytic results are described to explain why certain algorithms are preferred. In some cases, the practical algorithms’ relationship being discussed to purely theoretical results is also described.
The book opens with some hints for porting code from C to C++ and then moves on to the proper use of the new and delete operators in C++ for more robust memory management. The text then proceeds to class design, including the proper use of constructors, destructors, and overloaded operator functions for assignment within classes. (These guidelines ensure that you will create custom C++ classes that are fully functional data types, which can be copied and assigned just like built-in C++ classes.)
This is one of the all-time bestselling books on the C++ language by Ivor Horton. The book teaches you both the standard C++ language and C++/CLI as well as Visual C++ 2012. Thoroughly updated for the 2012 release of Visual C++ and C++ 11 standard, this book shows you how to build real-world applications using Visual C++ and guides you through the ins and outs of C++ development. With this book by your side, you are well on your way to becoming a successful C++ programmer.
