Very Very helpful for a biginner to C++ like me. My programming class teaches visual basic but i heard that is teaches bad programming habits so i don't want to focus on that too much so i rather start learning C++ now. In the second half of the year my class turns into an andvanced computer programming class in which we will learn Java  . Im in 9th grade and my goal is to make it to MIT. So i think its best for me to study everyday from now rather than trying cram stuff into my brain in like 11th grade.

If you can learn C++, Java will be a total breeze. You'll have to learn some different ways of doing things, and will have to give up some things you may have become attached to (like pointers, destructors, and operator overloading), as well as learn entirely new library functions (err, classes and methods, sorry), but all in all, C++ is a very good foundation for Java. This makes sense, since Java stole 95% of its syntax and semantics from C/C++.
