    I wanting to learn more about c++ coding, I've been reading some good websites online. I know digitalpoint isn't the best forum for coding. So can someone point me to good coding forums?

    Thanks,

    Hi!
    First and foremost..C++ is a programming language. It must be compiled on the target platform..or at least compiled *for* the target platform you intend the code to run on. It's faster than a interpreted language like Perl..but not all the time.

    I don't think I can post links yet..so..do this:

    Google "thinking in C++". You should find multiple sites..Bruce Eckel is the author and those books are top-notch. I suggest you start with the basics and move up fro there. C++ is object-oriented..so a good book on OO programming concepts might be a better place to start if you have limited programming experience.

    I bought "C++ from the Ground up" by Herbert Schildt many moons ago..and it has served me well.

    Try looking for C++ tutorial sites, or if you want a book, then i recommend the Visual Quickstart books. But to be honest, a quick google for C++ tutorials will be all you need to get started

    goto codechef.com and there was also a contest called google code jam...just try those problems there..dont worry if you find each one of them tough....practice them they will help a lot.
    thanks

    Hi.
    It is very beneficial if you c syntax. Some good books are
    1)c++ primer plus
    2) Thinking in c++


    Some good websites are
    1)java2s.com
    2)learncpp.com

    In order to get hands on c++, you should do programming in c++ on your system.
    Have a nice day. :)
