C++ programming site - to learn

[hallam2003]

I'm looking for a cite that will help me out of a little C++ programming, I don't have a clue what it's about or anything like that, but i'd like to at least get a little intro to it somehow. Your help is appreciated!!

There is www.about.com (http://www.about.com) there is a programming section, there is also www.codeguru.com (http://www.codeguru.com) . Or you could just go to a search engine and find tons of sites that have what you are looking for.

Well, I'm not too sure on really many sites. Maybe try C++.com (http://www.cplusplus.com) ; they have a good bit of info. I know that Developer.com (http://www.developer.com/) has quite a bit of info, as well as a few tutorials.

If you're wanting to just learn a little bit about it, but not learn the language itself, I would just reccomend doing a search on your favorite search engine for "C++" or something.

However, if you're wanting to learn the language, I'd reccommend that you get a book.
I personally like any of the "SAMS" books, though if you have no background in programming, they are very difficult to follow.

If that's the case, try to find "C++ for Dummies." It's a very informative book that covers the basics of programming, and then delves right into learning C++. It's a bit basic for the language and doesn't cover a whole bunch, but from there, you'll be able to move right into a much more advanced book of some sort. It includes a CD that has a compiler and debugger on it, as well as all the source code from the book, so that you can follow along in the book more easily.

Good luck with getting a bit more info!

Thanks guys, I'll look around then. I have a friend that used a book, I'll see if he can find it again. I can also have one of my teachers order a book for me, if i have the name of it. I don't have any money, so buying books for myself is out of the question. I have a "job" throught the school's technology department, so I'm alloted a small about in the budget.
