Sometime on Jan 20, C.E. Hariharan assembled some asciibets to say:
Well,this discussion has been useful to me since I am in SEM-II Engg. and they are teaching us C++.
please read Stroustrup after learning a bit.
I would like to ask Pradeepto what does he mean by a bit.Exactly how much is a bit?
I've been programming for over 20 years, and have been doing C++ for over 8 of those. I've never read Stroustrup. OTOH, I have friends who've been doing C++ for 4 years, but have read Stroustrup completely, and I have friends who fall at all levels between. We all have comparable C++ skills.
IOW, and as KG would say - different people have different requirements. You'll know when it's time for you to read Stroustrup because you'll actually be able to read it.
