"Many Java programmers encountering C++ for the first time feel they are in a strange new world where things aren't always as they seem. In C++ for Java Programmers, leading author and educator Timothy Budd provides a comfortable transition from Java to C++ - first explaining how to perform tasks in C++ that are inherent in Java, then moving on to teach language features that are slightly different in C++, and finally covering aspects of C++ that have no correlation in Java.

The book is packed full of helpful rules, warnings, and notes. It also includes four chapter-long case studies - each a walked-through example of C++ language features."--BOOK JACKET.
