It shall be my privilege to teach a second semester programming course to
bright undergraduates in C++.  The topics covered are (roughly) queues,
stacks, trees, recursion, searching, sorting, hashing, graphs.  Previous
instructors, teaching the course in Pascal, have used _Programming with
Data Structures_ by Robert L. Kruse, with apparent satisfaction.

I seek your advice.  Do you know of good texts that use C++ for examples?
Do you advise a book other than _The C++ Programming Language_ by Stroustrap
as an introduction to the language?  Any advice to help this C programmer
and C++ neophyte would be appreciated.

Respond by mail;  I'll summarize if warrented.
