While maintaining the authority and quality of a book that has sold more than 500,000 copies, this Fifth edition is not your father's C++ Primer. It has been completely revised and rewritten to conform to today's C++ usage. and to cover the recently released C++ 2011 standard. Students new to C++ will find a clear and practically organized introduction to the language enhanced by numerous pedagogical aids. Students returning to C++ will be able to update their knowledge with new material on using C++ libraries and programming styles.

- A best-seller completely revised and rewritten for the new C++ 2011 standard
- A favorite choice for a first C++ book--greatly improved and updated for modern C++ programming.
- Reorganized to better address the novice audience, making it more approachable for non-C programmers.
- Features many new examples that are less advanced and more accessible to novices as well as experienced programmers--folks who already use C++ need this book too.
