Sorry if this is a FAQ but:

A friend and I want to do some programming in C++. We've
read the Stroustrup book "The C++ programming language"
but we're still confused. I've looked at the C++ books
list which is posted to comp.lang.c++ but it contains
no coments on the level of the books listed.

I was thinking of ordering one or more of these:

- C++ Primer , S. Lippman
- C++ for C programmers , Ira Pohl
- Programming in C++, Dewhurst & Stark, or
- The Complete C++ Primer, Weiskamp & Fleming.

Does anyone have any recommondations on these or any
other C++ books. I have a good knowledge of C but I
think that hurts rather than helps when it comes
to designing a program in C++.

Please reply via e-mail.

Salik.
