not my thing.............I need somehting simpler

Post by atmonkmonkt666 »

I want to learn C, or C++, either one of those. But I don't see many good books or tutorials that are down to earth. I can't comprehend when they keep on using intermediate words, I mean I know what it means, but I can't comprehend them into the the context. Are there any books or tutorials that are easier to read? I know and heard lots of names, and took peaks, but none seem to work for me? Or is that I just haven't read enough? I didn't even finish the first chapter of the C one, but I wasn't comprehending half-of it, so should i just go on anayway? If you didn't understand it, did yu just read on, and then eventually got to know it? or not? Any help would be great.

Actually, I first learned online, I think my first tutorial was at http://www.cplusplus.com then I read the book "C++ in 24 hours" and it got me started with classes and other main concepts. Where I live computer books are hard to find so that's the most advanced book I read, but there are some for more advanced issues once you move on.

I would recomend learning C++ right away, I find C to look more complicated, even though it's almost the same. The I/O (input/output) functions in C++ are much easier to use I find.
