Borland C++ and Turbo C++ are two hot compilers from Borland International that almost every C programmer wants to have. And after getting the compilers, readers will definitely want this definitive,... This description may be from another edition of this product.
Probably one of the best available book for Turbo C/C++. The book is good due to three reasons- One, you can start from scratch and you can understand and use a difficult language like C easily. Two, it provides complete to the point as well as easy/with example reference for the C language. Three, it has an excellent reference for turbo C 2.0. Overall, as far as Turbo C is concerened, this is a single book that fulfills most of the requirements. The teaching style of the author is excellent and the reference material is to the point with examples wherever required.
great !

I leaned C and C++ from this book and now teach from it with no complaint to date (didn't teach the guy that wrote the previous review - I'm from IL :). Anyway, I found the book simply great - all the information I needed packed in VERY simple, to the point examples (not like other books that have you reading 3 page examples just to show what cin does...)+ It still serves me as a very complete refference to both languages. I would be happy to recomend anyone using or planning to learn\use C\C++ (Turbo or otherwise) to buy this book
In depth, LOTS of information, better than Borland manual!

Within two hours of buying the book, all I had done was skip around in it. I hadn't read anything sequentially, and I was already learning new functions for Turbo C++. In fact, he included features of Turbo C++ that weren't even in the Borland manual or help screen. After even jumping around in the book, I was realizing the compiler that I bought had far more power than I realized, and not because Borland explained it, but because Schildt did. He packed a lot of information in this book. The price is up there, but to me it was completely worth it. Lots of information! If you are stuck in Turbo C++ 3.0/3.1, get this book. It is the best reference I've ever read for any programming language
