C++

Does anyone know any good resources for learning C++?

It would be most appreciated.

Read SICP

I guess you don't know any better. Hopefully wiser heads prevail here.

Thinking in Sepples is a very boring book. I tried to get into it during a long train ride, but it's just so mundane, so linear, plain, unexciting. I grabbed Thinking Forth instead, read it for two hours (happily and excitingly), then tried to go back to thinking in Sepples, but it didn't work. In other programming books, if there's abstract bullshite, it's there for a reason, and its high-quality bullshite that provokes thoughts. The only thing that the pseudo-abstract bullshite in TICPP2ed provoked was my annoyance at not getting to the point already.
Also, examples. When I get into something new, I want (semi-)real-life examples, like a JSON module or LISP, not a [b][i]FUQIN LIGHTBULB/i][/b]. So when I flip the pages, I think ``oh my, I wonder how would you exactly expand the cond to a chain of ifs'' and not ``why my light no work''.
ALSO, stop trying to be hip, Bjarne.
It's just a boring read, that's all.

My point was, listen to >>2.

The usual suspects -- Koenig and Moo, and then anything by Sutter and/or Alexandrescu, followed up by Lakos.

This thread is ironic, because the best way of learning Sepples would without a doubt not be by reading a book about it. My bet would be that learning Se or Haskell would be the best way to learn Sepples.

You're wrong.  Reading S I C P is the best way to learn anything.

>>8
But what if the thing you want to learn is touring-complete?

>>9
No problem. Just read SICP.

Sepples = C++

Is it just me or is the quality of posting dropping of late? I'm looking at you >>11

>>12
It's just you, /prog/ never was so _{helpful and friendly towards beginners.}

>>13
That's >>12's point, mister.

>>14
_{I know.}

>>12-14
If it bothers you so, just tell people to go Back to /pr/, please.

Thinking Forth is such a good book.
