Finally I have published C++ app. The name is "C++ notes". And you can download it here Unlike my C Interview questions app this app has short notes on each topic along with objective and programming questions.  Please remember that it is not a substitute for a good book. But can be used as a quick reference. So you or your kids need some help with C++, I am there. Sorry, my app is there. And one more thing. I have gone through the material many many many times. But still there could be errors and even typos and grammatical mistakes. Please send these errors to me at hegde002@gmail.com I need to start on my next ground breaking app. Ha ha.
