Title: This book is Outdated
Review: I love O'Reilly books but this one was a big disappointment. -no mention of vectors -no use of namespace -no discussion of Inheritance in classes -generally outdated (publish date 1995).These topics alone are so commonly used in beginning C++ courses that the omission of these topics so basic to C++ is really horrifying. I ended up giving up on the book. After several attempts to refer to it for my classes I found it not just lacking in an explanation, but completely missing the topic. I just put the book in the corner to collect dust.O'Reilly really needs a better book than this one for such an important topic.
Is the review positive or negative?
