Design Patterns - Elements of Reusable Object-Oriented Software
Author: Erich Gamma
Published: 2000
ISBN: 978-7111211266, 8131700070
"Design Patterns is based on the idea that there are only so many design problems in computer programming. This book identifies some common program-design problems--such as adapting the interface of one object to that of another object or notifying an object of a change in another object's state--and explains the best ways (not always the obvious ways) that the authors know to solve them."
Practical C++ Programming
Author: Steve Oualline
Published: August 1995
ISBN: 978-1-56592-139-9, 1-56592-139-9
"Fast becoming the standard language of commercial software development, C++ is an update of the C programming language, adding object-oriented features that are very helpful for today's larger graphical applications. Practical C++ Programming is a complete introduction to the C++ language for the beginning programmer, and also for C programmers transitioning to C++. Unlike most other C++ books, this book emphasizes a practical, real-world approach, including how to debug, how to make your code understandable to others, and how to understand other people's code."
