For the beginners, a very good one is C++ Without Fear: A Beginner's Guide That Makes You Feel Smart.

What makes you think you should buy a book ? Just because people comment it as good ?
You can go to google newsgroup of comp.lang.c and search for pointers, that is their hosted home and are discussed in details

Maybe try "C++ Primer, 4th edition"? Its a big improvement over the earlier versions.

Also, there are plenty of guides online you could look into, as well. Try those out before spending all your $ on books.

Read this pdf. It's as good as any beginner book out there (that will cost you $50). The pdf is free.

i'm already reading it

it's too cool

and then i don't know which book to start out

Programming Principles and Practice Using C++ Or C++ primer Or Accelerated c++

Maybe try "C++ Primer, 4th edition"? Its a big improvement over the earlier versions.

Also, there are plenty of guides online you could look into, as well. Try those out before spending all your $ on books.

The major problem with online guides is that many, if not most of them, have wrong or outdated information concerning C++ programming.

If you are new to C++ programming, you don't know which site is giving you correct information or not. Unlike C++ books, many of these sites are not peer-reviewed, and basically anyone can post outdated or wrong C++ on them and say "this is a C++ tutorial".

Unless the site is a well-known one, recommended by professional C++ programmers or C++ industry leaders (for example Herb Sutter has the GotW site, Marshall Cline has the C++ FAQ site, etc.), then you are taking the risk of not learning C++ properly.

thanks.......

could you answer this part please.

and then i don't know which book to start out

Programming Principles and Practice Using C++ Or C++ primer Or Accelerated c++

[Paul McKenzie]

i tried to work with Accelerated c++ but i can't work with it it's not in my way

Accelerated C++ is for programmers who already know a computer language who need to learn C++ quickly and efficiently when it comes to writing real C++ applications. It is one of the best books out there for this type of person, since it doesn't bog you down in low-level details.

If you don't even know how to write a program in any language, then Accelerated C++ is not for you.

Yes, online resources can be a bit dated and non-standard, but they are a valuable resource to have. These will get you started

http://www.cppreference.com/
http://www.cplusplus.com/doc/tutorial/
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C%2B%2B...es_and_classes
http://www.research.att.com/~bs/bs_faq.html

if you are interested in c++0x at all look at
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C%2B%2B0x

you can also read the c++ 2003 standard here

If you are worried about a book, just pick one already . You can always buy the other?

[XMasterrrr]

i can buy other book only

so after i done cplusplus.com

i'll read one of the books i had wrote or the one you recommending me

regards....
