/prog/ - Moving From Java to C++

Name: Some Bitch Who Cares 2012-02-08 23:41

Greetings,

I'm a fairly new programmer and I've recently began a C++ class. This class requires a certain amount of basic experience which I simply do not have. I do, however, have quite a bit of experience programming in Java.

I'm wondering if you guys are aware of any websites or books which specialize at teaching a programming language for someone who already knows another language. In other words, a site that teaches the basics of C++ in a tl;dr sort of way. I have seen some books at Amazon, but I'd rather not pay for something I bet I can find for free.

Thanks guys!

It's like Java without GC and without a lot of stupid shit and with a lot of different stupid shit

the memory errors will probably be the most difficult thing to learn how to deal with and diagnose. You should find a good memory checker for your platform. valgrind is nice for linux.

does my use of valgrind offend you? It's really nice. I'd actually really appreciate it if anyone knew of any things equivalent for windows that is also open source.

No, just your sheer ignorance. Why don't you just run along and write some more toy code you bitch.

Make sure you understand pointers and how useful they are.

Because your braindead advice is meant for people wh can code. Pssstt...the OP is a new programmer. That means he/she is probably going to have more issues trying to think logically to solve the problem than say...oh never mind.
