C++ Program Guide to Standard Template Library
Mark Nelson · IDG Books Worldwide, Inc. · 1995
From the Publisher: It used to be that writing programs using templates and other prebuilt resources meant sacrificing application performance. Now, with the Standard Template Library, you have at your disposal a set of ANSI-sanctified reusable C++ components that are as sleek and powerful as those you might -- painstakingly -- code by hand. To get you started with STL, just as major C++ compilers begin incorporating this new library, theres the C++ Programmer's Guide to the Standard Template Library. C++ programming expert Mark Nelson provides authoritative, practical guidance on taking advantage of STL resources, including... A comprehensive introduction to the STL. In-depth explanations of template container classes and algorithms -- including vectors, lists, queues, stacks, and associative arrays. Information on using templates with your C++ compiler to build new classes and functions as theyre needed. And expert advice, illustrations, and real-world examples. Plus, on the book's accompanying bonus disk, you get the complete Hewlett-Packard STL, along with specifications, and time- and money-saving source code and sample programs.
