ABSTRACT

If you are not totally new to programming, chances are good that you have written one or two “Hello World” programs. (If you are totally new to programming, you need to find a good book on C++ programming and read that first . . . Don’t worry, we’ll wait for you . . . OK, you’re back-that was fast!)

Just to refresh your memory, “Hello World” in C++ might look something like Listing 2.1.
