    Default Re: What are your favourite C++ books?

    My most favorite c++ book is
    Teach yourself c++ by Herbert Schildt <link>

    The approach is awesome and beginners will surely find it easier to understand the basics of c++ very well. The excercies too helped a lot.
    That book changed my life since that changed my path from windows to linux side.
    Before I used to write crap code in the old turboc c++(3.0) and I didn't even have the slightest clue about standard c++ (lol).
    After coming across that book I installed linux(cd from lib) for the first time so that I can get free standard c++ compiler (didn't have access to net at that time and hence no clue about devcpp).
    I read an article about GUI design in c++ with Qt on linux in a magzine(PCQuest) and that prompted me to try Qt and Qt amazed me in the first gaze itself. And thats how I have been involved with qt and linux since then.

    Other that that book I also found these useful
    Thinking in C++ (Bruce Eckel)
    Effective c++(Scott Meyer)
    Most Effective c++ (Scott Meyer)
