Thinking in C++ is available for FREE download as a PDF. Sure, he gets wrapped up on theory a little, but you really should know the theory to program well.

Something you also need to be aware of is that programming C++ for Linux is very different to using Visual C++ in a windows environment - sure the base *language* is the same, but if you want to use MFC/VC++ then you should buy a C++ book that's oriented towards that.

Cheers,

Or you could do like me. Write Weeboo as a learning experience. Had no idea how to program in C++...I almost had half of the original JScript code porte before I really understood what a pointer was ;)

Oh, well...I'm a fast learner and I've been doing other program languages before so really, my path might not be the optimal for everyone...

I've never read a programming book in my life...ok well some old basic books back in the days but that's all...I am a reference guy...learn everything by trail and error...mostly error though ;)

Which could explain some silly questions I have in this forum from time to time...cause even though I am a good programmer I don't always know all the theory... ;)
