United Kingdom My views are my own.
Hi,
there are AFAIK not many book which assume already C knowledge.
The reason is simple. C++ is an entirely different beast.
So, most C++ gurus recommend to forget your C habits and
learn C++ as you would learn a new language.
(for example. in C++ there is no need for
- malloc, free
- void *
- char * (at least most of the time)
....
)
some of the best books out there are
Thinking in C++ from Bruce Eckel
(also available online: www.bruceeckel.com)
C++ Primer from Stanley Lippman
The C++ Programming Language from Bjarne Stroustrup
go to
http://www.accu.org
there you will find many book reviews from experienced C++
programmers.
hope I was helpful
