Publisher's Synopsis
This one-stop source aims to provide programmers with the expertise and ready-to-use programs they need to take full advantage of C++ in the implementation of object-oriented designs. For use in a variety of operating environments, this practical book focuses on three programming paradigms: constraint programming, genetic algorithms and neural networks.;For each paradigm, the book offers real-world application examples that go beyond the syntax of the language. Each paradigm is also accompanied by a set of useful and reuseable C++ classes which can shorten the development time of non-trivial programs.
