Hello,

I hope to, after I refresh my math and engineering, start doing some work in OpenFOAM.

Currently, I am taking IIT Bombay C++ course from edx.org (created by MIT and Harvard and is a nonprofit). I have Jumping Into C++ but I need a book that is geared more towards scientist and engineers or OpenFOAM.

A free online textbook, a good one, would be ideal. If not, I see that
C++ for Engineers and Scientists (Introduction to Programming) 3rd Edition


by Gary J. Bronson (Author)

is well marketed.


Any suggestions. Remember, my ultimate goal is to learn C++ well so I can use OpenFOAM.


Thanks.

"Starting out with C++ From Control Structures through Objects" by Tony Gaddis in its Ninth Edition is a good book. I am currently studying from the same textbook.

There are many C++ books available on the Internet, but some of them are:


1: "The C++ Programming Language" by Bjarne Stroustrup: This is considered the "Bible" of C++ programming and is written by the creator of the language himself. It covers all aspects of C++, from basic syntax to advanced concepts.

2: "Effective C++" by Scott Meyers: This book is a collection of 50 guidelines for writing efficient, reliable, and maintainable C++ code. It covers topics like memory management, exception handling, and class design.

3: "C++ Primer" by Lippman, Lajoie, and Moo is a comprehensive guide to C++ programming covering the language's basic and advanced features. It is known for its clear explanations and practical examples.

4: "Programming: Principles and Practice Using C++" by Bjarne Stroustrup: This book is aimed at beginners without programming experience and wants to learn C++. It covers basic programming concepts and gradually introduces more advanced topics.

5: "Modern C++ Design" by Andrei Alexandrescu: This book is for advanced C++ programmers who want to learn about modern design patterns and techniques. It covers topics like generic programming, template metaprogramming, and design patterns.

6: "C++ Concurrency in Action" by Anthony Williams: This book covers the topic of concurrent programming in C++. It covers topics like threads, synchronization, and parallel algorithms.

7: "Exceptional C++" by Herb Sutter: This book is a collection of real-world problems and solutions demonstrating how to use C++ effectively. It covers topics like exception handling, operator overloading, and templates.

8: "The Art of Computer Programming" by Donald Knuth: This classic book is not specifically about C++ but is considered essential reading for anyone who wants to become a skilled programmer. It covers various topics, including algorithms, data structures, and programming techniques.

along with the books, I would suggest learning through video tutorials. In YouTube, there are many C++ tutorials are available. you can watch them and learn C++. Hope this will help you.

I hold a degree in mechanical engineering, but i had not any courses or lectures in C++. So i had to start from scratch. I tried a lot of books, but these two are the best in my opinion:
