Overview
C++ is rapidly becoming the programming language of choice for science and engineering applications because of its rich object-oriented features. Intended for beginning and intermediate programmers, this book surveys the application of C++ to technical problems. Modern object-oriented software engineering tools are employed to simplify the presentation and all aspects of modern C++ programming practices of relevance to scientific programming are surveyed.Editorials
From the Publisher
"A great first programming book for computational science courses, as well as a solid resource for experienced scientific programmers."Choice
"Physical Science and engineering students who are either very diligent or have some background in programming could learn C++ very well from Yeveck's text."
Jan Tobochnik, Physics Today
"The best feature of the book is its good and concise description of the C++ language. The book would be a good fit for instructors who prefer to teach programming in detail. This would be the ideal text for the student who is considering a career in scientific programming, and wants to learn C++ very proficiently."
American Journal of Physics
"The book covers a reasonably broad range of topics, including brief discussion of computer and software structure, object-oriented programming..."
