French language resources for C++ ?

Are there good French language resources for C++ ? Websites ? Youtube channels ? Conferences ? I know that [cppreference.com](https://fr.cppreference.com/w/Accueil) has a French translation. Thanks.

:confused::confused::confused::confused: I'm just looking for French language resources for c++. The same way a german might want to have german language resources for C++ or a Brazilian would want to have portuguese resources.

I've given similar advice there; learn English and use an international keyboard. It gives you access to more resources; CodeProject, SO, MSDN - all English. Also makes sharing code across borders a lot easier. Even if you're from a country where English is being taught in school, it is an easy language to learn. And that it works is proven by your English question, getting answers from a lot of non-native English speakers. (Which includes American and Australian).

This is so uncalled for! Such an answer to a very polite and legitimate question and, moreover, coming from a fellow Canadian? You might have had a bad day but still... Also I don't see how your post is not infringing on house rules (the stuff about no trolling). :thumbsdown::thumbsdown::thumbsdown:

Please don't assume you can attribute this to me having "a bad day". This is something I see all the time, and every time, you'll get the same response - it infuriates me. I love my Quebec compatriots, Quebec is literally right across the river from me, French is my mother tongue, I have many friends and family in Quebec, but I get annoyed every time I see their politicians doing something to deliberately hold them back from realizing their full potential. Scaring the population ("French is in decline!" has been their rallying cry) buys them votes. It's ugly.

It's not trolling if you truly feel the way I do. Trolling is goading someone, generally through a personal attack. This was NOT a personal attack, I thought that much was clear in my post. I was purely commenting on what should not be a necessary need to look for coding resources in French. You're limiting yourself to a very small subset of what's out there if that's all you can deal with. If you've detected anger in my post, it was directed at Quebec politicians, who -- as I wrote -- refuse to provide their population with the schooling they need to compete and succeed. Not too long ago, I had a discussion with the 80-something year old father of a friend of a friend, who lived all his life in Quebec. He would've loved to learn English beyond "hello", "yes", "no" and "I have a red pencil case". He felt he's missed opportunities because of it. We're on the same page. Granted, my answer was not directly useful to the original poster here. My goal was to get him thinking about why he needed to ask the question to begin with. Again, that's not a personal attack (in case I need to remind you).

...and as I wrote, being familiar with your contributions here in the lounge, I was surprised to see you ask for this - that's why I inquired whether this was for yourself, or you were asking on behalf of someone else. I truly hope that, unlike Mircea, you're not seeing any of this as a personal attack.

While I understand (and partially share) the passion of your convictions, I think it's the wrong place to vent your opinions. Politics is a topic off-limits in the lounge, or so I understand it, and commenting about what politicians do is almost by definition politics.

I hope you aren't denying OP right to have his language preferences. That being said, let's leave it at that and eventually do what most Canadians do when slighted: say sorry and move along :)

I have no issues with English resources; I've been working in English all my professional life (30 years) I just want to find French resources. If there are none, there are none; if there are some, I'd like to know them.

Fair enough. I just remember being very disappointed with the French programming books I was being offered or had to buy while in college. Very expensive (but then, aren't all college books?), and absolute crap. I had concluded back then that: (a) being a good programmer (b) being able to communicate clearly (c) in the language of your choice (d) actually wanting to write a book ...is a rare combination. I was always underwhelmed with the results.

That's the wording I was looking for. I react this way, because I am passionate about this stuff. When I get into it - I've had people - IRL, not just in a forum - tell me to just let it slide; it's not like I should embark on my own crusade. While they're not wrong...this leads to the status quo. Well, okay. It shouldn't be my battle to fight.

I can't say you're wrong. This *is* politics, I couldn't spin it otherwise even if I wanted to, and I'm very well aware of CP's stance on the topic. So...yeah. :-/

Absolutely not...but (as I suggested in one of my later responses to him), he should prepare himself to be disappointed. I have bad memories of my own time in college and the French programming books I was presented.

I *was* going to take exactly that position, but then, you're absolutely right - that would be such a Canadian thing for me to do. :-) Sorry, moving along. :-)

Certainly looks like there are books. Amazon.com[^] Following has good reviews - in french https://www.amazon.com/programmez-langage-Mathieu-Schaller-Matthieu/dp/B010GGJSNC/ref=sr_1_3?qid=1699466766&refinements=p_n_feature_nine_browse-bin%3A3291438011&s=books&sr=1-3[^]
