C++ is a recent addition to the long list of programming languages nowavailable. It is a powerful programming language. Several companies havewritten different versions of C++, but almost all C++ languages availabletoday conform to the AT&T standard. AT&T-compatible means the C++language in question conforms to the standard defined by the company thatinvented the language, namely, American Telephone & Telegraph,Incorporated AT&T realizes that C++ is still new and has not fullymatured. C++ is a small, block-structured programming language. It hasfewer than 46 keywords. To compensate for its small vocabulary, it has oneof the largest assortment of operators such as +, -, and &&. The large numberof operators in C++ might tempt programmers to write cryptic programs thathave only a small amount of codeC++'s large number of operators (almost equal to the number ofkeywords) requires a more judicious use of an operator precedence. C++'sinput and output are performed through the abundant use of operators andfunction calls. With every C++ compiler comes a library of standard I/Ofunctions. I/O functions are hardware independent, because they work onany device and on any computer that conform to the AT&T C++ standard. Ihave taught C++ programming a lot during five years ago in computerscience department. I have an experience how to present this language inthis book. C++ language is still an important topic in all universities and it isa computer science course requirement in any science collage andinformation technology.The C++ programming language is called a compiled language. Youcannot write a C++ program and run it on your computer unless you have aC++ compiler. This compiler takes your C++ language instructions andtranslates them into a form that your computer can read. A C++ compiler isthe tool your computer uses to understand the C++ language instructions inyour programs.This book has seven chapters.
