so i started learning c++

I used java as my first programming language and that was cool. Later, i was taught pascal in school and currently c++. One thing i hate about c++ is that it has various standards and error prone.

C and C++ the most important pillar of programming. if u want to do master in C++ go for Balguruswami is best book. I suggest you to join C++ communities on Orkut,Myspace or Facebook.. I prefer Orkut.. and read the forums regulary.. experts. give opinion their.. on each and every question ask my anyone.. its help a lot.

Hey, That is really good, not many people can just be bored and then just 'learn' C++. I don't really know any programming languages, I just know some really basic HTML/CSS, I wish I knew PHP or something really complex. Make sure you have a good day, Happy Lotting!!

I agree that C++ is really confusing. I've even heard a joke saying that 'if you want to debug a C++ program, you better rewrite it.' Thus, if it is the first time you learn a programming language, I suggest you better give up now. Learn something easier first: like Pascal. It's true that Pascal has nearly no use in these days, but it helps you to understand the basic of a programming language. After learning Pascal, you would find learning other programming language much easier. That's why Pascal is always choosen as the 'best programming language for education purpose', and it is why Pascal is still well known nowadays. (but basically, writing a game is not as easy as what you think. If you haven't even learnt a programming language, go for some full course of making a game) If this is not your first time to learn a programming language, then it would be better for you to learn java. Be prepared: I'm not sure if it is a must to learn C++ first before learning java, as what the previous response mentioned, but I'm sure you won't find learning java easier. However, as far as I know, if your target is making a game, java should be more useful.

Hi,if suggest that question I would probably say you should go with Java.In C++ the main thing you get confused is the Pointers.That breaks you into pieces. My suggestion would you get thorough with the OOPS concepts that is get to know about inheritance,polymorphism,constructors,etc and then you study Java.That would be more helpful.In fact I am following this same method.

Its grate my boy do it, I am expert C++ and Java both are wants to improved web designing and specially games. I tell something to you. you think it very carefully Java is a opensource but C++ is not opensource and not cheper its very expensive. try to first learning Java platform, do SCJP exam and go next C++ its my way.

i suggest u to complete C++ first and then do java... because u cannot do JAVA without knowing C++...that is why they call it as OOPS..so get going with C++ first..its very easy, try to get into the syntax...class, objects, have a good sound with the first two chapters and how to write a C++ program...then try out ur concepts... happy to respond.. happy mylotting..
