Title: Simple, easy, fun to read, and uses relevant examples
Review: Lafore does a great job of holding your hand while learning C++. This is definitely a book for beginners who are interested in learning C++. Also does not assume you have any prior experience with C (a drawback I found for a lot of books when first getting into C++.) The really great thing about Lafore's style is that he explains the topic, gives a parabolic example, shows you the code, and then goes back and dissects the code line by line explaining what each statement does. Again, this is great for learning C++, even if it is your first language. Don't come here though if you're looking for windows programming. Great Job!
