Kurzbeschreibung
Naturwissenschaftliche Programme werden statt in C++ noch immer häufig in FORTRAN geschrieben. Dieser Band hilft FORTRAN-Programmierern mögliche Berührungsängste mit C++ abzubauen. Anhand anschaulicher Beispiele zeigt der Autor, dass sich mit C++ viele Applikationen tatsächlich schneller und effizienter erstellen lassen als mit FORTRAN. Von einem ftp-Server können Quelltextbeispiele abgerufen werden.
* Teaches the design of programs for scientific computation in C++
* Introduces unique C++ classes, defines the particular relationships among these classes, and demonstrates their use in a dozen of the most powerful current applications
