I've been working on this guide for some time now, and do periodic updates to it. Rather than post the whole thing here and have to update 2 different sites, I'll just link to the original. You can find it here.

No offence, but you haven't really explained things very well in the first part. This is like a "crash course in 15 minutes" thing. You might wanna rework that.

Well, that book kinda sucks, so it's not really something to brag about.

I object - C for Dummies was excellent - Dan Gookin's a great author. But C++ for Dummies was truly crap.

Just to throw my opinion in here... I personally can't stand the 'For Dummies' series of books. O'Reily, SAMs, or Que is the way to go.
