1. Why C++
2. Learn C

Unity

just do it.

mainly find something interesting and make things around it.

try making a Sup Forums c++ interface and customise it for your browsing pleasure

Well I'm like fetus trying to skateboard new to coding.

isocpp.org/faq

There are tutorials for everything. stack overflow is your friend.

but for something simpler check out projecteuler.net/

it starts as simple math problems that are easy to code but get you to think about memory and datatypes

Get a few books. Lots of people will tell you not to get books. The real problem is finding good books on programming. What you're looking for is a book that tries to give you the syntax, and give you an understanding of the right words to use when describing doing things when programming. You need those words and the syntax so that you can google more specific problems and know if the code you're seeing in the answers actually answer your questions, because you're going to be horribly unoriginal for a very, very long time and people will have done what you're trying to do before. By the time you become less unoriginal, you'll have a much better understanding of how to "code" and you'll be able to come up with unique stuff yourself.

Here's some to get you started.

This
Also remember to exercise, searching for some C++ problems on Internet

Read a book
Do the exercises
Read a Data Structures book
Do the exercises
Implement all the algorithms

Don't start with C++. Start with Python, Java or C.

DON'T do this if you're new to programming. If you want to learn networking you definitely don't want to try learning it with C++, especially if you are new to programming in general, because you will give up real quick.

don't you mean unreal?

unity uses c# you utter mong

Fuck you right

Kek, if you're that retarded learn JavaScript, you can use JavaScript instead of C# in Unity.

Even tho unity uses c# it is written mostly in c++, so learn game programming and go work in unity

Dont, leave js to to normies, no one programs games in js and becomes successful

That's why I specifically stated that JS is for retards in my post.

Write x86 programs with a hex editor first. Then when you get that down you can use an assembler. After that use C, and then whatever.

Learn C first.

>Sup Forums c++ interface
Would you put that in your resume?

The same way you learn any language. Learn it while you're very young or don't learn it ever in your life.

Who wouldn't? Sup Forums is the greatest hacker of all time. It shows you know your stuff if you frequent his homepage.

...

This.

Also, do the exercises

C++ is a very hard language. If you try to learn that as a first language you will, understandably, lose your patience. What I suggest you do before you embark on this journey is: install Arch Linux only using their wiki. Now this might seem like an impossible task, and it very well might be. But, through this adventure, you will gain the patience and resilience of a Buddhist monk. You can do it, just always remember: Check yourself before you wreck yourself.

Is this a "Sup Forums helps C++ babbies to their assignments for their class" thread?

Needing some serious help understanding something with strings and pointers.

Need to write a code that determines the lenght of a char string and a code that finds index of a character in a string. Honestly got not clue what to do. Any help?

youtube.com/watch?v=atuFSv2bLa8

Use pointer arithmetic.
int strlen(char *str)
{
for(char *strend = str; *strend; strend++);
return strend - str;
}

Not OP, but looks like an extremely helpful site.

Thanks cob.

>shit workflow
>shit macro based reflection in c++
>terrible UI

You are stupid.

Literally retarded, C# >>>>>>> JavaScript >>>>>>>>>>>> UnityScript.

protip: unity doesn't actually have javascript support.

Sup Forums is so retarded about programming.

>You are stupid.
you can't read 3 short posts without completely missing their point

Are you sure you didn't miss the point of my post?

Step one: Learn a better language

Anonymous is the greatest hacker of all time you uninformed slut.

Where to download a .pdf of Principles and Practice Using C++ (2nd Edition)?

ptgmedia.pearsoncmg.com/images/9780321992789/samplepages/9780321992789.pdf
literally googled it

oops i think that's some sample or something sorry
go peek around on some torrent sites for it or whatever
