Exceptional C++: 47 Engineering Puzzles, Programming Problems, and Solutions
The actual main text of this book has not been obtained, therefore none of the 47 items have been read, and one cannot claim to have read this book. The author’s page, publisher catalog, and preface have been checked; the author’s original GotW #8 problem and solution have also been fully read, but the author explicitly says the book version has revisions and expansions, so it is not counted as coverage of this book’s main text and that article is not used as a substitute for this book’s lesson. Publisher sample-chapter candidates and old VCDJ excerpt entries return 404, O’Reilly returns 403, public library catalogs have no readable e-book; other discovery paths did not find a readable copy of this book.
