Where to go after SAMS Learn C++ in 21 Days
I''m currently reading and learning C++ from Sams Teach Yourself C++ in 21 Days and wondered where I should go next.
Should I get a complete Code/library resource for C++ of some kind?
Should I get a book on Win Application making with C++ or just use Internet tutorials and Microsoft Site for learning that.
Then what else can I learn other than Direct X, Open GL??? Is that it or are there more library''s or something?
Thanks Guys
What do you mean Puddled!?

I''ve been reading up and that does seem like the best route
The main thing I wondered is that the book seems to deal with C programming, how different is it to program in C++
Could I just put in C++ code and it''ll work fine or should I change the code in some form?

I too have SAMS teahc yourself C++ in 21 days.
Was just wondering what compiler are you using with it?

I have Sams Teach Yourself C++ in 21 Days (Day 8, starting to get a little confusing!), and I''m using Dev-C++ too. Hopefully when I get better at programming I''ll buy MSVC (how much does it ¢o$t?).

The standard edition costs about $100. I think you get a $50 rebate too, so that''s down to $50. Not bad. I''m not sure what the Academic pricing is. bracken, did you really get the Professional edition ffor under $30? The price M$ has posted online is $549. I find that a little hard to believe, but if it''s true that''s one hell of a deal!
