A very useful book and an excellent reference

I used this book for my Computer Science 2 course. The information was presented logically, although the explanations were a bit long and wordy. Otherwise, this book was excellent, and it is the best reference book on C++ I own. I have found myself referring back to this book more so than any other textbook for a course I've completed. Its appendices contain a great deal of useful information.

A Perfect approach to teaching data structures concepts

A Perfect approach to teaching data structures concepts. I found this book usefull enough to keep

Good ref. textbook; recommended for intermediate programmer

This book is excellent for those who has basic C++ programming skill. It must be accompanied with a course in C++ because it is designed that way.I found the textbook to be helpful and detailed with many examples. Although I have to admit that it took 2x (or even more) to understand each chapter, I find it is rewarding and rich in details.Remember, it is not a "Teach Yourself C++ in 21 Days" type of book. You must be ...

This book is the bomb....

I used this book for a Data Structures class, loved it. The book is kinda tough to read because it is chock full of detail, but it is a good primer for a beginner in C++ and is full of examples and actual code. I used the code on the disk that comes with the book on several courses, the sort routines are excellent. I used the book for reference all the way through my Masters in Comp Sci.

No room for mortal minds here...

I am a genius programmer and I found this book to be most exquisite. It was wonderfully easy to follow and they even left all the examples unfinished so I could demonstrate my high caliber intellect and complete them myself.
