Herb Schildt's C++ Programming Cook Book

This book is a collection of techniques that show how to perform various programming
tasks in C++. As the title implies, it uses the well-known "cookbook" format. Each
"recipe" illustrates how to accomplish a specific operation. For example, there are
recipes that read bytes from a file, reverse a string, sort the contents of a container, format
numeric data, and so on. In the same way that a recipe in a food cookbook describes a set of
ingredients and a sequence of instructions necessary to prepare a dish, each technique in
this book describes a set of key program elements and the sequence of steps necessary to
use them to accomplish a programming task.
Ultimately, the goal of this book is to save you time and effort during program
development. Many programming tasks consist of a set of standard functions and classes,
which must be applied in a specific sequence. The trouble is that sometimes you don't know
which functions to use or what classes are appropriate. Instead of having to wade through
reams of documentation and online tutorials to determine how to approach some task, you
can look up its recipe. Each recipe shows one way to craft a solution, describing the necessary
elements and the order in which they must be used. With this information, you can design a
solution that fits your specific need.
