Hey im just starting out with c++ and i could use some help i cant find any good tutorials on the internet so i was told to come here. If anyone can help me with some basic c++ coding to start out with I would be very grateful THX

A good place to begin learning C/C++ is "A Book on C" by Al Kelley and Ira Pohl or "C++ Primer" by Stanley Lippman. C++ was invented by Bjarne Stroustrap and he wrote a few books about C++, I can''t quite remember what they are named. These books will give you a good introduction to C/C++!

alright cool
ill be sure to get those when i get some money but anyone know of some tutorials i can look at for now?

I just checked, I think if you go to Yahoo.com and look under the computers section and under programming languages you will find some tutorials on C and C++. C and C++ are the most popular languages in use today, I''m sure if you type in +"c" +"tutorial" +"beginner" on some search engines you''ll surely find tutorials. I guess this will give you a good start. But in order to learn a lot of C++, you need a good book about it. I learned C++ at university, but a guess some good books will help.

"Thinking in C++" is mostly targeted at people who already know C. I don''t think it qualifies as a newbie book

I started off learning C then moved onto C++, they are very similar and I would recommend learning C first as a lot of it is the basis for C++.

Also you would really have to buy a decent book to get the most learning. Try the WROX series of books both "Beginning C" by Ivor Horton and "Beginning C++" by Oleg Groshenko (I think thats how its spelt) are very good and build from the ground up (which is very important for a beginner), explaining clearly everything you need to know about the C and C++. Check out Amazon.co.uk or Amazon.com.

Hope that helps
