Introduction to Programming Using VISUAL C++ .NET, MS C++ .net CD

This book is intended to help the reader explore what it means to program computers. Taking an introductory approach, the author focuses on structured programming techniques—the building blocks for all forms of programming—and leaves the introduction of objects until the end. Throughout the text, however, the author does not forget that most programmers will ultimately be applying these techniques in an object-oriented programming (OOP) context. Thus, he adopts a programming style (e.g., use of very small functions, dividing projects into separate files, creating functions to perform specific operations on structures) that will fit very nicely with typical OOP approaches.
