I want to learn C++, is there anyone interested in joining me so that we ould study with, and encourage, each other ?

the book on my mind now is "C++ how to program" , other suggestions are more than welcomed.

thanks,
Castaway.

I have an idea what C++ is but I'm not exactly sure, I have been wanting to figure out how I could do something with myself to keep busy and I'm a huge nerd.

Hello cmperry, I'm really sorry, I'll have to delay this to another time because I have to do some other stuff those days .. so if you want to start, read whatever book you like, but I recommend Bruce Eckel's : Thinking in C++ .. this guy is a genius and his books are just amazing.. there are many difficult concepts that he succeeds in explaining much better than most of the books out there..

If anyone is still interested in this, I suggest you download Microsoft's Visual Studio Express, it's free and will get you atrted using the language.

Visual Studio 2008 Express Editions

PS you'll also get to use Visual Basic etc.
