Nu har jeg aldrig kodet andet end småting i C++, så jeg har ikke kigget meget i den her bog.

Description

Looks at the design features of the C++ programming language. Assuming a background in the syntax of C++, it shows how to become an expert C++ programmer by learning the idioms of the language.

Scott Meyers has described this as "the LSD book, because it is purple and it will expand your mind". I used to browse the copy in my thesis lab -- a fun guide to learning the ins and out of C++ by breaking it...
LibraryThing member jsburbidge
This is one of the absolutely classic books on C++, although it shows its age in that it precedes the language of patterns, while discussing "idioms" which are strongly pattern-like. This should be required reading for any half-serious C++ programmer.
