2.0 out of 5 stars
For Fortran programmers who want to learn C++,
By A Customer
This review is from: An Introduction to C++ and Numerical Methods (Paperback)
This book was written for scientific programmers who program mainly in Fortran but who want to move into C++. It is a brief and elementary discussion of C++. The main features of C++ that make it different than C are not discussed until Chapter 17, and then only briefly. No discussion is given in the book on performance issues in C++ vs Fortran. Serious scientific programmers in Fortran have to face up to these issues and be convinced that C++ is the way to go if they are to make the switch. The book might be useful to those who want a quick look at C++.

This review is from: An Introduction to C++ and Numerical Methods (Paperback)
A waste of money! If you want to learn Numerical methods or need some C++ numerical code, don't buy this book. There are much better choice like "programming in C with numerical methods for engineers" by Kamal B. Rojiani or "an introduction to numerical methods in C++" by BH Flowers.
