Description

Essential C++ for Engineers and Scientists zeros in on the key elements of good programming and C++, using a multitude of interesting and appropriate engineering and scientific examples. This book covers the features of C++ needed for writing engineering programs, including many features of object-oriented programming. Early on, the book makes some simplifying assumptions that allow the use of C++ topics without lengthy explanation, and then later discusses the intricacies of the features. Readers will come away with the confidence needed to solve problems with C++.


Features

  • NEW - NEW! Code updated to comply with ANSI C++ Standard.
  • NEW - NEW! Material on member operators and more coverage of member functions.
  • NEW - NEW! 50% more programming projects to choose from.
  • NEW - NEW! Two new case studies with full algorithm development.
  • NEW - NEW! Expanded coverage of files.
  • NEW - NEW! Uses structs.
  • NEW - NEW! Contains an appendix on C for readers who want to use this language.
  • NEW - NEW! Additional appendixes on both Borland and Visual C++ integrated development environments.
  • Covers the essential features of C++, including control structures, one-dimensional and multidimensional arrays, and file manipulation.
  • Includes features of object-oriented programming such as class definition and use, derived classes, constructor functions, operator overloading, and automatic conversion.
  • Contains over 80 engineering and scientific examples and programming projects drawn from interesting areas such as solar heating, environmentally sound power production, water conservation, automated manufacturing, and pipeline and power grid modeling.
  • Presents fundamentals of numerical methods that represent commonly used techniques for solving engineering and scientific problems.

Essential C++ for Engineers and Scientists focuses readers on the key elements of good programming and C++ using a multitude of engineering and scientific examples that are relevant to future engineers. The book covers the features of C++ needed for writing engineering programs, including many features of object-oriented programming. Early on, it makes some simplifying assumptions that allow the use of C++ topics without lengthy explanation, and then later discusses the intricacies of the features. Readers will come away with the confidence needed to solve problems with C++.

THIS SECOND EDITION FEATURES:
  • Over 50% more programming projects than in the first edition.
  • Two new case studies with complete algorithm development.
  • Over 80 engineering and scientific examples and programming projects drawn from interesting areas such as solar heating, environmentally sound power production, water conservation, automated manufacturing, pipeline and power grid modeling, and others.
  • Updated and enhanced coverage of many topics including member operators and member functions, files, and structs.
  • Reference appendices on using the C programming language and about both the Borland and Visual C++ integrated development environments.
