![]() Rating: - I found MSDN more useful than this bookWhenever I need help with STL, I open this book only to find that it has nothing useful on it. For those who have MSDN don't bother to buy this book. Rating: - Good for Beginners and Intermediate UsersAs an advanced programmer, I must say that I'm disappointed that the level of information provided is not as deep and meticulous as I had hoped. Additionally, both the index and the overall organization of the book leave much to be desired. The book, however, is a valuable reference for beginning and intermediate programmers. It explains the STL (Standard Template Library) from the ground up, explaining when, where, and why you would use any particular aspect of the STL, how ...

The major improvements I noticed were in the examples. There are many more examples and many more STL features now have examples showing how you can use them.

And I found a few to be self-contradictory. He says, for instance, that "This is a good solid book that will get you up to speed quickly on all the important ideas in STL, and many of its basic usage idioms", but then naievely claims that "there aren't any higher level ideas than those presented here". Does the book cover only basic concepts, or is it that if the book doesn't cover it, it is ... Read More Rating: - Not the bestThis was one of the earlier STL books, and even with its Second Edition, it hasn't caught up much. On its own, it would deserve 3 or 4 stars, but it's expensive and there are better ones out there for your money. I think even the publisher must agree, as this book's #1 competator is also an Addison Wesley book, _The C++ Standard Library : A Tutorial and Reference_. The real problem is that this book only does the STL, not the other parts of the standard library like strings and iostreams. The ... Read More
