Very New to C++

[Seglespaan]

Evenin all,

I'm currently studying for a degree in Internet software development and as part of the course I'm doing C++.

However the tutors teaching techniques are really poor, I'm good with Jave, Actionscript etc so I know and understand codeing but am really looking to see if anyone can tell me the name of a good book so that i can self teach myself C++

Cheers

Tim

Well, as a reference book, I will always defer to the creator of C++, Bjarne Stoustrup. The book is called the C++ Programming Language.

However, a great teaching website and book I found is from the once Microsoft employee Bartosz Milewski. His methodologies to object oriented C++ are fanominal (bad speller).

The website is http://www.relisoft.com
But the part you would most likely be interested in is an online book on that site called C++ in Action - located at http://www.relisoft.com/book

I hope this is enough to get you started.

One quick question though:
Are you interested in C++ programming in general, or windows programming in C++ - Milewski's book teaches both (kind of), but if you are interested in the latter, I know of many other Windows resources.
