First off, I would suggest learning general programming first... the concept before getting into C++.
I have the philosophy that once you learn how to program, you can program in any language... you just have to learn the syntax of that particular language. Although I do not have any books in particular to recommend... that is how I would go about it. I seem to have good luck with books from Sams or Que. |
