Chapter 1 includes a new short introduction to reading data from a file text, allowing students to solve relevant, complex problems early on in the text.
Chapter 12 has a new section that teaches students to use stringstream to convert between string and other data types.
Chapter 13 now describes tail recursion and contains a new example on mutual recursion.
Additional material has been added throughout the text on sorting, the Standard Template Library, iterators, and exception handling.

Pedagogical features facilitate learning a complex programming language

15 Programming projects have been added to the text that challenge readers to design and implement a C++ program to solve a problem.

A companion website provides supplementary information to ease the learning process

5 VideoNotes have been added to the companion site that explain programming concepts presented in the text in step-by-step video tutorials. These videos allow students to reinforce major concepts and view the entire problem-solving process outside of the classroom. VideoNotes are indicated by an icon in the text.

Also Available with MyProgrammingLab™
MyProgrammingLab is an online learning system designed to engage students and improve results. MyProgrammingLab consists of a set of programming exercises correlated to specific Pearson CS1/Intro to Programming textbooks. Through practice exercises and immediate, personalized feedback, MyProgrammingLab improves the programming competence of beginning students who often struggle with the basic concepts of programming languages.

Interactive Practice helps students gain first-hand programming experience in an interactive online environment.
Step-by-step VideoNote Tutorials enhance the programming concepts presented in your Pearson textbook by allowing students to view the entire problem-solving process outside of the classroom—when they need help the most.
Pearson eText gives students access to their textbook anytime, anywhere. In addition to note taking, highlighting, and bookmarking, the Pearson eText offers interactive and sharing features. Rich media options let students watch lecture and example videos as they read or do their homework.
