This is yet another fine book that I've added to my collection. I use it mainly as a reference but it is certainly an excellent teaching guide as well. This book is replete with informative lessons and practice exercises with answers for those who are new to the C ++ programming language. I would also highly recommend it for the intermediate level individuals who wish to augment their C++ programming skills. A thorough explanation precedes each exercise so the ease of learning progressively in as little time possible is greatly enhanced. The practice exercises are very helpful and practical. Expect to take more than 21 days to become proficient if you are just starting out in C++. Well done Jesse Liberty, Bradley Jones and everyone else involved in producing this book containing over 900 pages of excellent C++ training material!
