Looking for Good, Concise C++ Tutorials
-
What are the best online C++ tutorials for experienced VB developers who need to learn C++ fast? In other words, they need one that is both clear and concise. Yes, I know that may be a tall order! :) Kevin

You might get better results in the C++ forums since I don't think many VB programmers know C++! OTH, I did it the hard way, through books :) Notorious SMC
The difference between the almost-right word & the right word is a really large matter - it's the difference between the lightning bug and the Lightning Mark Twain
Get your facts first, and then you can distort them as much as you please Mark Twain -

OIC. I started in C++ before doing VB6 and I've never had much luck with Online tutorials :( I prefered a good old fashioned Book instead. If you're interested, you might want to try Deitel & Deitel's C++:How to Program. It's a good book for anyone starting C++ Notorious SMC

Get your facts first, and then you can distort them as much as you please Mark TwainYes, a book is better. There is one called C++ for VB Programmers or something. The reason I asked about tutorials is because I was looking for the fastest way of helping my friend achieve his objective. That is, originally his boss envisaged a 3-day timescale for the VB application. So presumably with the C++ version he would be looking for the minimum time - no more than a a couple of weeks or so.

I haven't read those before, but if speed if what you need ......:~ Notorious SMC
