I'm rewriting some of my C++ software from the ground up (for the second time! uggh!). Is it unadvisable to use templates? They look kind of nice. Also, if I already know C++, is Ellis and Stro. a useful thing to have by my side ($40 useful, that is). Thanks, Pete Shirley shirley@cs.indiana.edu

You should definitely have the ARM within your arm's reach at any time. I don't think that $40 is totally excessive. I LIKE the fact that the book is hardbound. It opens much flatter than a paperback. Personally, if I have the choice of paying an extra 10 bucks for hardbound, I go for it. (Actually, I can't say I had a choice this time!) Cay
