Problem Solving with C++, Global Edition (10^th Ed.)

For courses in C++ introductory programming.

Learn the fundamentals of C++ programming with an emphasis on problem solving

Now in its 10th Edition, Problem Solving with C++ is written for the beginning programmer. The text cultivates strong problem-solving skills and programming techniques as it introduces readers to the C++ programming language. Author Walt Savitch?s approach to programming emphasizes active reading through the use of well-placed examples and self-tests, while flexible coverage means the order of chapters and sections can easily be adapted without sacrificing continuity. Savitch?s clear, concise style is a hallmark feature of the text and is supported by a suite of tried-and-true pedagogical tools. The 10th Edition includes ten new Programming Projects, along with new discussions and revisions.

A clear and student-friendly introduction to C++

• Savitch’s clear, concise style is a hallmark feature of the text, receiving praise from students and instructors alike.
• A flexible coverage of objects means that instructors can easily adapt the order in which chapters and sections are covered in their course without losing continuity. A dependency chart in the preface offers a quick reference for instructors who wish to rearrange coverage.
• Advanced topic coverage includes discussions of C++ templates, inheritance (including virtual functions), and exception handling, plus a full chapter on the Standard Template Library (STL).
• This edition is fully compatible with compilers that meet the latest ANSI/ISO C++ standard. At the time of this writing the latest standard is C++14.
• REVISED! Corrections of errata and edits for clarity have been made, such as indicating preferred methods for file I/O, naming of terminology, a better definition of encapsulation, and removing material that is now standard in C++11 and higher.
• NEW! camelCase notation, rather than underscore_case, is used consistently throughout the text.

• Concise, easy-to-understand programming examples, projects, exercises, tips, and pitfalls benefit student understanding.
• Boxed sections summarise major points and are spread throughout each chapter.
• Numerous Self-Test Exercises are contained at strategic points in each chapter. Complete answers for all the Self-Test Exercises are given at the end of each chapter.
• End-of-chapter programs are split into Practice Programs and Programming Projects.
• Practice Programs require a direct application of concepts presented in the chapter and solutions are usually short. Practice Programs are appropriate for laboratory exercises.
• Programming Projects require additional problem solving and solutions are generally longer than Practice Program
