Hello all!

I took C++ in high school and I sort of remember some of it, but also I'm mostly reteaching myself.  Does anyone have any suggestions on the order in which I should learn or a website or book with a particularly good format for advancing?  I'd like to get back into OOP but, that's gotta be a long way away at this point!

Thanks for any tips!

I remember seeing a book about C++ laying around my mom's office.

I'd suggest getting a book about it from the library or a bookstore, and testing out your skills in Notepad++.

Exactly. Though some maybe older revisions & editions; I would definitely look into seeing what old computer/technology books you can find at your local library. I have been to mine and there are indeed books on programming in various languages.

I have Dev C++ so I'm good on that part. I think I recall our library selling a book on C++ during a book sale for like $1.50 but that was months ago.  Hopefully they still have something relevant!

Thanks for the suggestions guys!

Use a tutorial site like www.cplusplus.com to study the language (covers virtually everything there is to know about C++) and apply it. You can read books all day with C++ and never get anywhere. Programming is just like math, you cannot learn it without applying it. Start by just doing tutorials and exercises your reading material gives you, once you've got the basics under your belt (variables and data structures, basic logic and decision making, looping, printing to the screen and extracting input data..) start coding stuff. Make little text-based games. Make programs that can solve math problems, print different outputs based on inputs, stuff like that. Like the old nike catchphrase, 'Just do it!'.

I would say that you can find one on amazon for fairly cheap. I learned C++ and I thought it was too hard for too little results. You really only learn it if you want to go into some game field or something of that sort.

Hello everybody..
For beginners you can use Lynda tutorials, they are starting from simple examples and grows up with you.. Visit: www.lynda.com or if you love to read books I recommend the Deitel and Deitel's books. Deitel books are easy to read and uses simple examples.
For advanced users you can use Appdev tutorials, visit www.appdev.com to know more.

Yours..
Amer

That is a bad way to approach it. If you want to learn Object Oriented Design in C++ that is exactly what you should go about doing. Dive in and do it. The only real way to learn is to do something and I find the best way to do that in programming is to come up with a project that you want to do and do it. Learn how to do the various things you need to do by figuring it out on the spot. A video game is a good start, make a command line video game.

Honestly though, C++ is a bad place to go to for OOD. A language that can actually do a good job of it, like Java or C#, would be an ideal place to learn how it works and then go back to learn the incredibly inflexible system that is C++ OOD.
