Accelerated C++
After a tour of basic C++, the book looks at more advanced C++ features, such as templates, including built-in support for containers. Besides tapping the strength of Standard C++, you also will learn to design with your own templates. All examples make use of the command line and console (without GUI programs), but the advantage is that this code should run on any of today's operating systems and compilers. Later sections cover the basics of class design, which include good coverage of operator overloading and inheritance. Topics covered include: Introduction to C++; Console I/O with stream classes; Basic string handling; Loop and flow-control statements; Arrays; functions; methods; Standard Template Library; Iterators; Sorting and generic functions; Basic class design; Pointers and arrays; File I/O; Memory management including statically and dynamically allocated memory; Stream support; Conversion operators; Operator Overloading; and much more.

C++ Standard Library
Programming with the C++ Standard Library can certainly be difficult, but Nicolai Josuttis's The C++ Standard Library provides one of the best available guides to using the built-in features of C++ effectively. The C++ Standard Library provides plenty of default functionality in the form of the Standard Template Library (STL) for containers (like vectors and linked lists), as well as generic algorithms (which allow you to sort, search, and manipulate elements inside containers). The best thing about The C++ Standard Library is that it gives the reader a concise guide to working with these basic containers (from lists to sets and maps, with everything in between). Each container type is explained along with short code excerpts. Moreover, in a reference section, the author explores the connections between each container type, showing how they share similar methods. The C++ Standard Library can be a real timesaver for a programmer.
