I hope you got the 4th edition.  If you ordered an earlier one and can
still cancel the order, you should do so and make sure to get the 4th
edition.

I find cppreference.com is a good reference, enough that I haven't felt
the need of a book for that purpose.  But the book was good for
understanding how the language is put together and how to use it.

That's supposed to be a good book, though I haven't looked at it myself.
There are some samples and other info on Stroustrup's web site.

It's a good book, aimed mostly at people familiar with older C++
versions.  It sounds like you used some C++ in the past, so you're in
about the same boat that I was in when I read it.

That's even more expensive than the book, unfortunately.  I should check
whether they offer quantity discounts--I might want to place a bulk
order. ;-)

Good plan I think.  C++ in its current incarnation is a totally
different language from C, with some legacy C stuff left lingering
around in it.

Yes it's the Fourth edition, I usually buy the latest version, there are 
exceptions because sometime a slightly older book is a lot cheaper and 
has basically the same content, that happens a lot with books used in 
college.

Boy that is one massive book, over 1300 pages

I just noticed a problem, I have two copies of Rowleys compiler, ARM, 
and MSP430, the MSP430 version is C only.

And for you C++ fiends out there I have a copy of Microsoft Visual 
Studio Pro 2013 that is not installed I assume that is for C++ Version 
11 at least, anyone know?

He has already mentionned that. It is an exercise. That is a
very natural situation where to look into c and c++ implementations.

And that means?  And what do you consider to be a good C compiler?

No, pforth was written by Phil Burk while he was at 3DO.  SP-Forth was
started by Andrey Cherezov and it's authors are "Russian Forth
Interest Group with the help of many contributors".

You're right. I thought I was browsing pforth...deb but actually
I was browsing spforth...deb I had downloaded earlier.

That means my comment applies to spforth.

pforth seems to be a solid Forth, as you expect from a Debian package,
but nothing spectecular.
