But he explicitly mentions that the 3 first chapters are a quick tour of =
the
language and he explicitly mentions that everything will become clear =
later.
The learning process begins from chapter 4.

I do not like it too, but it is what it takes to become a good =
programmer.
That said you do  not need to know all the features provided by C++ to =
do
programs, but it takes years to learn it all (assuming you also have =
other
things to do daily).

I shall say that I will have a good knowledge of C++ after I have =
finished
the book inclduing the appendices. :)

Well it is aimed towards itermediate programmers. However my belief is =
that
every programmmer of C++ should have read this book.
