a few c and c++ links for you
see free books below
1. read the faqs. they give pointers to books, compilers(free), and web
tutorials.(links below)

2.get a compiler(no need to buy one see faqs for the links)
devcpp , djgpp, cygwin all work well (also borland has a free commandline
compiler - link in faq)

3. get a couple of good books. at least 1 beginners book and a reference
book.work thru the books and the problems they give you.
see links in faq for book reviews or links to reviews from my web site.
