More than three quarters of a million programmers have benefited from this book in all of its editions Written by Bjarne Stroustrup, the creator of C , this is the world s most trusted and widely read book on C For this special hardcover edition, two new appendixes on locales and standard library exception safety also available at www.research.att.com bs have been added The result is complete, authoritative coverage of the C language, its standard library, and key design techniques Based on the ANSI ISO C standard,The C Programming Languageprovides current and comprehensive coverage of all C language features and standard library components For example abstract classes as interfaces class hierarchies for object oriented programming templates as the basis for type safe generic software exceptions for regular error handling namespaces for modularity in large scale software run time type identification for loosely coupled systems the C subset of C for C compatibility and system level work standard containers and algorithms standard strings, I O streams, and numerics C compatibility, internationalization, and exception safety Bjarne Stroustrup makes C even accessible to those new to the language, while adding advanced information and techniques that even expert C programmers will find invaluable.
