Professional C++ (WROX, by N. Solter and S. Klepper) if you know C. I am yet to find a better book.
Practical C++ (O' Reilly) is good too.

@asnvin,

Delhi? You might get it in any moderately big computer book store. You can get it in Landmark or Corssword also.

Hi Ashvin,

Did you check this thread first?

*www.thinkdigit.com/forum/showthread.php?t=87644

It has links to all free and quality resources for learning programming and some are the best in class.

Let me know if you still have any query.

 

[Roadripper]

yeah WROX and Oreilly are the best... forget Yashwant kanitkar and balguruswamy ..

I think you hibernated for a decade too long.

LOL

I'd recommend Accelerated C++ from Addison Wesley for someone who has a little idea of programming and wants to get neck-deep into "Standard" C++ real fast.

 

[Quiz_Master]

I always recommend C++ Primer Plus.

The complete learning guide it is.... Easy to get in a bookstore...
The example given in it and the language is so easy that even a n00b (like me for example) can understand it....

Must read are

LIPPMAN - best book from basics to advanced stuff.
STROUSTROUP - C++ inventor.

What about: C++: The Complete Reference, By Herbert Schildt

 

[aditya.shevade]

It is a good book, but not very good. Best way to know is read some reviews on amazon. As far as I know, that book is not much good for learning. It is, as the name suggests, a reference, once you master the language.

 

[khattam_]

C++ How to Program by Dietel & Dietel is what I'm reading.. its superb...

 

[j1n M@tt]

"Let Us C++" by Yashavant Kanethar is a gud book for understanding the concepts.........but not gud for theory papers in B.Tech, since their is no definitions and stuffs like dat.....he explains the C++ OOP concepts in a chatting like manner through examples.
