Memory As a Programming Concept in C and C++

Klappentext Assuming readers have a basic familiarity with C or C++! Frantisek Franek describes the techniques! methods and tools available to develop effective memory usage. The overwhelming majority of "bugs" and crashes in computer programming stem from problems of memory access! allocation! or deallocation. Such memory related errors are notoriously difficult to resolve. Moreover! the role that memory plays in C and C++ programming is a subject often overlooked in courses and in books. Most professional programmers learn about it entirely through actual experience of the problems it causes. Zusammenfassung This 2004 book provides students and professional programmers with a concise yet comprehensive view of the role memory plays in all aspects of programming and program behaviour. Describes the techniques and tools to deal with the problems related to memory and its effective use! assuming only a basic knowledge of C or C++. Inhaltsverzeichnis 1. Introduction; 2.
