Title: Structureless manual on the Visual C++ interface
Review: It is difficult to understand who could have use of this book. For those who master the programming interface of Visual C++ it is unnecessary, and for those who want to learn it, the book is too unstructured and confusing. The titel points to programmers, but nowhere the word "algorithm" appears. The lack of algorithmic programming structure is also reflected in the general structure (or lack of) of the book. As an example, toolbars are introduced before dialog boxes and the Class Wizard is explained too late. The book gives examples with detailed solutions with support of the attached CD-ROM, but no problems and exercises are found. I looked for a book to recommend my students on the Visual C++ interface, but this book is actually not a text book, but a sorts incomplete manual.
