D'Orazio's Programming in C++: Lessons and Applications provides an accessible introduction to programming in C++. It teaches the C++ language and object-oriented design to students with no previous programming experience. The focus is on developing programs for solving a variety of problems. Each chapter of the book is divided into two parts--Lessons and Applications. The Lessons teach C++ language elements and simple programming techniques, and the Applications teach program design. A step-by-step methodology for program development is presented early in the text and reinforced throughout with the help of the application examples and over thirty case studies.
