Tony Gaddis’s accessible, step-by-step presentation helps beginning students understand the important details necessary to become skilled programmers at an introductory level. Gaddis motivates the study of both programming skills and the C++ programming language by presenting all the details needed to understand the “how” and the “why”—but never losing sight of the fact that most beginners struggle with this material. His approach is both gradual and highly accessible, ensuring that students understand the logic behind developing high-quality programs.
In Starting Out with C++: Early Objects,Gaddis covers objects and classes early after functions and before arrays and pointers. As with all Gaddis texts, clear and easy-to-read code listings, concise and practical real-world examples, and an abundance of exercises appear in every chapter. This text is intended for either a one-semester accelerated introductory course or a traditional two-semester sequence covering C++ programming.

Free Starting Out with C++: Early Objects
I have several [C++] textbooks that delve into the subjects of programming. The aforementioned text [Starting out with C++ Early Objects, 7th (e)] is extremely helpful, with quite a bit of information. It [C++] is the required text for the upcoming semesters, and not just my introductory class, so it covers beginning C++, intermediate C++, and introduction to data structures. I highly recommend this text, as the language of programming can be fairly abstract, and the authors take care not to intimidate even the most illiterate in technology.
Other texts can be rather audacious in their assumptions of the average readers comprehension of mathematics. Fortunately, I am rather skilled with math, but that should not be a decisive factor in this purchase, as the the first couple of chapters implement example after example with regards to the translation of mathematics into codes and strings.
All-in-all, I highly recommend this book. Computer science is the innovation of the future, and the demand for said skills is higher than ever.
P.S. Most computer science textbooks are atrociously expensive at campus bookstores, so I highly recommend to purchase it on amazon. Also, you could buy it used, as the IDE [Integrated development environment] used in the book is Microsoft Visual Studio (2005, 2008, 2010...any version) which can be downloaded from the Windows software site (Visual Studio Express is free).
My campus bookstore charges $220 for this book, I got it for $98 [New] here on amazon. Brand New books come with video lectures and Microsoft VS 2010, however if you can get used and save even more, that would work too, just make sure to download Visual Studio Express.

I've used Gaddis' Java and now C++. I love his style of presentation. I'm just learning both languages so I like the consistency of his format, which gives an introduction and then an extended code which focuses on the subject that he introduced. I use the phrase "extended code" because I took a visual basic class using text by a different author. That author would give an introduction and then show the code out of context so it was hard to conceptualize what he was talking about or how to use the code. With Gaddis, the code is in a functioning. He would introduce the subject of the code. Utilize a program that uses the code and then break down the code to highlight the code of topic. His style felt "comprehensive".
In addition to Gaddis' personal style of presentation, his text is part of the Pearson Higher Education publications. Pearson is student oriented so there are online tutorials (video notes) which offers a lot of student assistance. I recommend this text and Gaddis to any instructor or student learning programming.
