I have Jamsa/Klander's C/C++ Programmer's Bible on my desk. It's got everything you ever need to know sorted into short little mini-chapters. Very good for a quick "How do you do that again?" answer. "That's life, John. Activities available. Just add meaning." - Beautiful Mind

While it's not something I'd personally use for learning the language, I keep "The C++ Programming Language" by Stroustrup on the bookshelf. For reference, I try to go to the original source. I used to keep K & R around in the old C days for the same reason. Chistopher Duncan Author - The Career Programmer: Guerilla Tactics for an Imperfect World (Apress)

I have: C++ Complete Reference by Schildt C++ Programmnig Language by Strostoup (ok, I only understand the early parts) Visual C++6 Unleashed Wrox Wroking with MFC Basicaly, I have books on C++ language and books on VC++/MFC. I still don't get enough practice at VC++ but should be starting my first real world app. and without CP I would take a LOT longer to do it. Thanks everyone Elaine :rose: Would you like to meet my teddy bear ?

"Like it or not, I'm right!"According to Francis Glassborow at accu.org that book is not recommended:
A survey of the table of contents is far more disturbing because well over half the book is dedicated to brief documentation of the Standard C Library (and you would be far better off with Plauger's 'The Standard C Library for that). Much of the rest is a cursory and incomplete coverage of the Standard C++ Library. Aspects of the C++ Library have been ignored, other things are confused (for example the author does not distinguish between basic containers and adaptors - it is not clear that he knows the difference.) If you are already familiar with C++ and simply want a light weight reference to jog your memory you might get some use from this book but I guess you would be continually irritated by not finding the thing you were looking for. If you were looking for something more substantial to support a relatively weak understanding of C/C++ then this is not it.
