Not so bad old C/C++ reference book but nowadays out of date.

[Heather Gray · Rating 5 out of 5]

Perfect companion for C++ programmers who still like cracking open a reference book instead of just searching the net.

I have learned a lot about C++ from this book

[Bruno Gallego · Rating 5 out of 5]

Everything you need to know about C and C++ and more.

[William · Rating 4 out of 5]

Un manuale semplice e completo, gli esempi sono significativi e l'autore si sforza di rendere comprensibile il codice che utilizza. Unica pecca l'abuso di funzioni da librerie non definite e la mancanza di esercizi per solidificare le nozioni illustrate, capitolo per capitolo
