Re: [Dev-C++] OT: A Good C++ Book ?

[Scott S. <age...@co...>]

I find C++ from the Ground Up to be a great reference. I know 
professionals who use it as a reference guide, and I am learning for it. 
Make sure you type in all the examples, though. Other than that, Bruce 
Eckel has very good books .Bjarne Stroustup's book is good for college 
professors and little more I have heard, but haven't read enough of it.
