 Appendix D in the book has information regarding the difference between using ISO/ANSI standard C++ (which the book is written for) and using pre-standard C++ (which we have on our system). As written in the book, the programs will not work. For example, all includes in the book need to be rewritten as follows: Drop the first letter c if it exists, and add a .h to the end. The mapping between new (theirs) and old (ours) include file names is on page A13. Not also that the line using namespace std; is not used in pre-standard C++. The Appendix also talks about the differences between string data types in pre- and standard C++. There's some other good stuff in there too. Check it out.
