starting coding in C++
« on: September 15, 2011, 03:18:42 pm »

I'm thinking of starting coding in C++

I want to use it as an extra curricular activity (if you have no idea what that is, look it up :P) and I want (to start off) something easy to do. any ideas on what I could do? in the end I want to be able to make at least simple games.

also, don't expect replies for about 19 hours after this post, my brother's on the internet and I have school tomorrow :(

Step 1: Move to Life Advice
Step 2: I recommend this tutorial: http://www.learncpp.com/

That tutorial is working well for me so far. As such, I recommend it. It's pretty easy to understand, if you're willing to try a little.

If you just want something to mess around with and create some simple games, another language might be better. I'll let someone else bring that up, though; it's bound to happen soon.

Don't need to lock it to move it.
