If you know some basics about programming in general, I would strongly recommend C++ How To Program 2nd Ed. by Deitel & Deitel, which teaches ANSI C++ with most of the recent additions to the language. The C++ Programming Language by Bjarne Stroustrup is a must for every serious C++ programmer. This is not a beginners book though, and it is pretty heavy reading, but eventually you will want to get this book too. ----------------------------------------------------------- Peter Palotas alias Blizzar A brief description of DJGPP: NEVER BEFORE HAVE SO FEW DONE SO MUCH FOR SO MANY!
