Product Description
Amazon.com Review
Based on their best-selling C++ tutorial, Deitel and Deitel's C++ Interactive Training Course repackages their comprehensive tour of C and C++ into several dozen simple and digestible online lessons. While some electronics books suffer when translated into hypertext, this CD-ROM version actually makes the material more accessible for any beginning or intermediate C/C++ programmer.
The online viewer (which uses Java) organizes the original book's information into sections that cover basic and advanced topics, first in C and then in C++. Not only will you learn the fundamentals but chapters on using objects and C++ templates show off advanced features too. With hypertext links to all sample code, programming tips, and hundreds of exercises, this electronic version takes a rather dense printed book and makes it more streamlined.
The electronic version lets the reader choose what makes the most sense. No longer is the reader confronted with dozens of quotes from historical figures, for instance, as in the printed book. Here, you can get this material via a button if you want it and safely ignore it otherwise.
A winning feature here is that each programming example is made available in a window so that you can cut and paste code into your own projects. You can even run the sample code automatically from within the viewer and examine the output. Naturally, you can search and cross-reference topics via extensive hypertext links. In all, the C++ Interactive Training Course makes an excellent choice for anyone who wants to learn C/C++ in an engaging, well-planned, and thorough online tutorial. --Richard Dragan

1.0 out of 5 stars
5+ year old Pre-standardized C++? No thanks!,
By A Customer
This review is from: C++ Interactive Training Course (CD-ROM)
I bought this product thinking it would just be a quick intro to C++. It is a full course in C & C++, but written in 1997! The authors assume you have full access to development tools on a Unix machine to test the code, and the Java interface is very [poor] (program interface goes blank if another window covers it, difficult to recover from at first). You'd think they'd do the interface in C++ if they're such wizards.Add to that they (obviously) do not take into account any of the advances in either the language, operating systems or the hardware over the last 5+ years and you've got a fairly useles (for learning, anyhow) product. Keep away unless you really want to throw money away (might I suggest a worthy charity instead?), or just want it for historical reasons!
