Problem Solving with C++: The Object of Programming has been used more than any other book to teach the first course on programming in C++. It explains C++ and basic programming techniques in a way suitable for beginning students, but offers a flexible organization that does not tightly prescribe the order in which topics must be covered. The book teaches students how to define their own classes early, while ensuring a solid understanding of basic tools such as simple control structures and function definitions. It takes a measured approach to classes, teaching students how to write some simple classes, then adds constructors, then overloading simple operators, then overloading the I/O operators and, and so forth.

I bought this book for my college introduction to C++ class. I could have bought the newer edition, but my instructor said there is very little difference between the fifth and sixth editions. I saved a lot of money buying this one. My instructor's lectures follow the the book exactly, with the same examples and tables. This class was my first experience programming. This book has helped me get 100% on every exam and assignment so far. Its very easy to read and there are many examples and explainations. I highly recommend this text to anyone who wants to learn programming. The main thing I do not like about it is the paperback cover, it bends and crumples easily in my backpack.
