ACCELERATED C++ INTRODUCES A RADICAL NEW APPROACH TO TEACHING C++. IT STARTS WITH THE MOST USEFUL CONCEPTS RATHER THAN THE MOST PRIMITIVE ONES, SO THE STUDENT CAN BEGIN WRITING PROGRAMS IMMEDIATELY. IT DESCRIBES REAL PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS, NOT JUSTLANGUAGE FEATURES. AND IT INCLUDES THE STANDARD LIBRARY FROM THE START. THE AUTHORS PROVED THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THIS APPROACH IN THEIR COURSES AT STANFORD AND PRINCETON, WHERE THEIR STUDENTS LEARNED TO WRITE SUBSTANTIAL PROGRAMS THEIR FIRST DAY IN TE CLASSROOM.
