Thread: off topic (just a little)

Do you know Thinking in C++ book? What do you think of it?

i am almost certain that you can find this as a free e-book somewhere (certain as in i had it once as an ebook) but i dont remeber the url.

It's available from quite a few sites...

http://www.javaic.com/eckel.html

This is one of them.

If you're looking for any other E-books you can probably find them in one of the links off of this page. A good resource.

The links from that site are dead - I have seen it and the Java version at several others, tho.

Anyone know if Petzold is online? I know he included an HTML version of his book, and wondered if anyone had uploaded it somewhere.

I've already downloaded it. Just would like to know what do you think of it. It's huge and I'd like to know if it's worth giving a time to study.

could you please post the url where you found it?

Actually it was not me who downloaded it, it was my friend. The book itself says http://www.bruceeckel.com, try it.

Petzold is online?? WHERE?!?!? You know, the printed version is REALLY expensive here.

Really? Hmm.... peculiar...

This site works. I know because I just downloaded the book myself from there and the JAVA one.

i suppose you coud always save each page - i nkow it would take ages but it would be better than shelling out £50+
for the book.
