I want to learn C++ but i dont know where to start. and what is Visual C++ Programming?

cuz i want to program homebrews for PSP hehehe

I want to learn C++ but i dont know where to start. and what is Visual C++ Programming?
psp? what's that?


to learn c++, u can buy a comprehensive textbook


visual is more advance thatn c++
Reply:Great answer (sarcasm). Aside from telling nothing about where to look, visual C++ is just a development environment for C++ - it includes a compiler, editor, and tools, but it is just C++, not "advanced". Report It

Reply:If you don't have any prior programming experience or knowledge. You should start with an easy language like java. Then you can go on to learn C or C++.
Reply:C++ is a difficult language. It's possible to learn c++ directly, but I would not suggest it to someone who is just starting to program, unless you want to become a professional programmer in a performance related field (games, embedded applications, etc). Becoming a good c++ programmer take years.





Visual c++ is a development product from microsoft that pack everything needed to do windows development. There are equivalent alternatives out there, but it's a decent product.





Java has a very similar syntax to c++ (and so has c#) but it's way easier to get good at it than c++. C++ require you to understand things way more deeply and deal with a lot of details that java does for you. This flexibility make c++ very powerful and this is why it is used in performance hungry application.
Reply:The difficulty with starting with C++ is that there are several difficult concepts that make up the language. There is programming skills in general, there is the OO (Object Oriented) paradigm, there are the Standard Libraries, there are templates...





I suggest starting with C. Everything you learn in C is directly applicable to C++ - in fact, with very few exceptions, C code will compile and run directly as C++ code, so you can think of it as learning a subset of C++. C will teach you the basics of procedural programming, which is what you need for C++, as well as Java, VB, and many other languages. Once you get comfortable in C you can then start learning how to incorporate objects into your code, and you are then writing C++.
Reply:Get a book of C++, get A CD of C++, install on Pc and do practical with books and computer......of join a institute for that.


....


visual c++ is a mixture of visual basic and C++....


more harder than c++...





but u can try..


first go with C++ then VC++





:F
Reply:Don't start with C++. Really, I mean it. C++ is a difficult language. First it would be much better to learn programming concepts using an interpreted scripting language like Python, which is object-oriented and can be used for many, many purposes and is portable.





Once you get the hang of that -- budget five years full time, or so -- THEN start working in C and C++. Not before.





By the way, starting from zero programming knowledge now, you can quite reasonably expect that the PSP will be totally obsolete by the time you know how to program a game for it.
Reply:C++ is an excellent place to start, despite what others might say. Programming is difficult, so you might as well start with C++. I know a lot of people say "start with VB" or "start with Java" - but how many of those people went on to code in C++? I'll tell you - very few. They learned their VB and now they're stuck with it!





The best way to start is to search the net for tutorials and references. There are literally hundreds of sites just packed with information out there - get browsing, and good luck!
