I even have his (old) fractals and graphics books. However, they're fairly useless now because they are closely associated with DOS device access and MS/Borland C compilers and, as I'm sure you know, the standard libraries for those compilers were very non-standard. > For C++ "Accelerated c++" and the two "Effective C++" books. > I don't write C++. I have a copy of Stroustoup but found it much harder to read than K&R. I tried to get into C++ but (a) didn't like it a lot and (b) found *huge* binary bloat and rubbish performance. Besides, almost every time I've needed to read a C++ program I've discovered it to be essentially ANSI C with // comments and not an object in sight. -- martin@ | Martin Gregorie gregorie. | Essex, UK org |
