perfect little companion

This book is a great little review of C++ concepts. I haven't used it much, but it seems through and easy to understand.

nifty guide

DePasquale has written a nifty little guide to C++. It does not attempt to teach you the language. You need a comprehensive textbook for that. Instead, it assumes you have that background in the language. So it offers listing and brief explanations of what operators are available and their precedence. The latter may well be more pertinent to some readers. Typically you might quickly learn the sundry operators. But which overrides another in order can sometimes be unclear. There is also a comprehensive listing of the reserved words, and the contexts in which these can be used. The guide is suitable for new and intermediate programmers in C++.
