Looking For A Text Book Intro to Code::Blocks
« on: October 08, 2009, 02:21:16 am »
Hello:

      I am using a newer version of Code Blocks 8.02.  I am looking for a book on Code Blocks as an introduction.  In my searches I have tried many book stores, various librarys that are public and privately run.  In searching these library's the librarians that assit me when consulting there computers inform me they come up with no matches or zero hits in Code:: Blocks as a C++ compiler computer langauge in looking for a book. If anyone is farmiliar with a book as an intro to C++ Code::Blocks please be good enough to provide me with title, author or ISBN.  Thank you for the help and consideration.

This can fit your desire.

If some piece of memory should be reused, turn them to variables (or const variables).
If some piece of operations should be reused, turn them to functions.
If they happened together, then turn them to classes.
