I want to learn C++

Peter Temp · 08-14-2009, 07:42 PM

I have basic knowledge in C++ but its been years I am not doing program in this language, so I too want to re learn the language, with the blogger replies I got lots of resources. Thanks

Well, since that you're already a programmer, it will be easy for you to learn new language. There is a lot of free tutorial you can find in the net. Good luck.

I would suggest you read this free book from Bruce Eckel. You can search "bruce c++" on google.

I love C++. It is very lean (sometime a bit mean also). I would suggest you start with fundamental of C++ such as object oriented. It is difficult but after you can understand the concept, you can apply it to many programmin language.

Hey man. Do you have a good foundation in data structures? If not, make it a good one, next is OOP, then the actual language (C++). Proprietary language like VC++ has an advantage if you are targeting only a single platform, if not, you can use Eclipse as the IDE and MinGw (you can choose other compilers) as the compiler. Ok?

As of now, i am a little bit disappointed in java because APIs are limited especially if your application requires a vendor specific execution. Been in java for 4 years now, especializing in modularization using OSGi and J2EE. Now i am starting to review my C language knowledge. Hehe.

According to me. U first learn C And tahn after C++ . If u are a programer in php than i suggeted to Learn C which is foundation of Programing .You can take tutorial from the W3school.com of C,C++. Best of Lucky.

i think Wrox Ivor Hortons Beginning Visual C Plus Plus 2008 is the best book
for learning C++

VASEO1 · 09-16-2009, 01:14 AM

i can teach you c++ can you teach me php in return

Read This Book - LET US ''C'' - YASHWANT KANETKAR. Learn C first and then move on to C++

This is the tut I consulted for my C++ language.

STOP!!!!!!

You are going to learn C++ to create a crawler?

No! No! No! No! No!

and no again!

The only reason you need C++ for your own tools is if you are writing system level software, drivers, or accessing hardware. For IM purposes, you will not.

Sure people have been helping you out, they do a quick google and link you to an article. That doesn't really help.

C++ is an entirely different beast than PHP. You will waste your time and effort.

What should you do instead?

Instead you should pick a language that will work with you rather than against you such as Ruby, Python, Perl, or Java.

Here is the breakdown:

Ruby - Hands down the best language for tool development. Ruby gets out of your way. It is the easiest language to use. Is not a pain in the ass about data types, syntax, type-safety, and all the things that suck in C++. Runs on all operating systems and your code is entirely portable. It is interpreted so your same script will run without modification anywhere. I use it to make all of my own crawlers, scrapers, SEO tools, and more. It is great for screen scraping. Highest recommendation!
Python - Python is another awesome language. Gets out of your way. Strong library base. Interpreted, runs everywhere. Would recommend as well.
Perl - Perl is awesome as well. See Python description. VERY strong library base. I would recommend Python over Perl since it is easier to learn.
Java - Java is very similar in syntax to C++. Very strong library base and can incorporate C++ dll's easily. Strong visual development language.
Visual C# - Access to Microsoft .NET. Very similar in syntax to Java. Great for Windows only application development.
Visual Basic - Don't waste your time, it has been replaced by Visual C#
C++/Visual C++ - The longest way to develop a program. You will be confined to Windows if you use Visual C++. You will run into many issues as it is just the nature of the language. It takes so long just to do anything that it is a waste of time. I love C++. It has it's place. IM is not the place for C++. Everything you want to do would be done quicker by one of the above languages.

If you need a crossplatform GUI then don't go for Ruby.
This is what I was able to do in Ruby in a few hundred lines of code.

Scrape a certain page for keywords
Perform SEO analysis on keyword
If the competition is weak it will find content from Youtube, blogs, and news
Submit to a blog via Wordpress RPC
Modify the All-In-One-SEO SQL data for that post to get the best on-page optimization
Automatically submit the bookmark to many social bookmarking services for backlinks.

A few hundred lines. In C++ that would take a good programmer at least a week. A decent one, weeks. I came up with the idea at 10PM one night pulled an all nighter and had it done by the morning. That is the power of dynamic, out of the way languages like Ruby and Python.
