Are C++ tutorials really effective?
C++ is darn effective if you go through it thoroughly..By learning this tutorials u can cover most of your projects as well as u can make softwares too...! But u've to learn every basics soundly so that u can easily make important codes by using ur skill..! All the best dude...may ur future shine! C ya!
Reply:As effective as you want them to be.
Reply:They are very effective if u r sincere.


A very good c++ tutorial online is Bruce Eckel's Thinking in C++ @ http://www.mindview.net/Books/TICPP/Thin...





What u hv to keep in mind is just like real books, u will hv to maintain a schedule, be serious and not slacking off!!!


And u will find that online tutorials helping u more than any books.


Many online tutorials are latest, watched by pros as a result errors are corrected faster than U can spot them!!!! And many pros put in their thoughts which u can see as comments. They comment from practical world experience. Its an experience which has immensely helped me sharpen up my C++ skills.


Hoping that u will find this online learning experience a Life changing one.
Reply:Yes, they certainly are effective. The only problem with tutorials instead of a physical book or a class is that it is a different medium. That is not a tangible problem as much as a perception problem. Every tutorial, as every book, is written with a slant toward some way of looking at doing whatever it is talking about. Occasionally, when the author's slant changes or the topic changes enough that it must change, the reader becomes confused or looses interest.


You have to choose a tutorial that suits your level of basic knowledge about the topic. You can't expect to read Eckel's books ( an excellent advanced read ) and get everything you need from them if this is your first programming language or you can't design an object oriented program and know nothing at all of the method.


Tutorials also get a bum rap sometimes simply because the person(s) using them try to push into a subject that is beyond them, then give up and later say "Tutorials are trash, get a book". You'll have to decide which one or ones are right for you to start with and continue with. You also have to give it a decent try. They package the compiler with the books that cost a lot for a reason: so you can work with the book's text examples. Get a compiler and use it with the tutorial.


I hope these rantings and suggestions on tutorials will help you out. The URL below has links to tutorials, compilers and other programming goodies that you might find useful.

Does anyone know where I might find beginners C sharp tutorials?

I'm not the most gifted (or confident) computer programmer, but I have to get to grips with C Sharp fairly quickly and I was hoping someone might be able to refer me to some sites that contain beginners tutorials (for beginners like me!!). Thanks!

Try Google:

What happens is you think of something you want to find, you type it in the little box and press the return key, and then as if by magic it gives you lists upon lists of websites that contain what you were searching for! Isn't that just amazing! It's just like Y!Answers except that it's instant and you get loads more information!

Visual C++ Tutorials for a very very new beginner?

I am interested in programming. Yes, I have searched the net and tried to find good tutorials for me to understand. Yes, my hair is exploding from understanding it. Yes, after reading a whole bunch of online tutorials I can't get anywhere at all except at the cout and cin concept. And this is from 2 months of understanding. (Yay for wasting the new year and december looping around.)





Yes, I AM going nuts.





One word:


S. O .S





I am a visual learner, and as far as possible I would like one like this:


http://www.profsr.com/vb/vbintro.htm





In fact, if I (ignore the fact that it's basic for a moment) understood this, I could immediately learn VB. But thing is, I need to know VC++. People, %26gt;%26gt;%26gt; VC++ %26lt;%26lt;%26lt; VC++





I cannot afford a real life book. Yes. In fact I want an online tutor (which will not of course happen due to $$ issues).





So, help out the little guy spare his programming defect by posting tutorials / e-books / suggestions that are stupidly and annoyingly easy, pretty please.

But my advice 2 u is to buy a book,it can't cost that much,and is the best and safest way to learn c++ or any other languages,because,u also get 2 practice exercises,and understand better what's all about.
