AP_Pictures Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 Hey! No schools around here offer a good programming course. I'm trying to get into C++ and Javascript. Can anyone suggest some affordable books on beginning learning? Or want to sell or donate any of your books? Let me know! Alex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyougi Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 The best book for beginning C++ people, IMO, is "Beginning C++ Game Programming" by Michael Dawson. While it's focused on game programming in the CLI, it does teach you important concepts and programming techniques that are useful in every area of C++ programming in general.

AverageJoe Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 Just go to the library, they are bound to have some good books on programing. If you are a beginner then check out a book such as programing for dummies, it may not be completely on C but but it will give you the basic knowledge of how programing languages work. Otherwise check out a book specific to C. Hope I was to some help, Joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AverageJoe Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 Is it not up to the standards of programing or something? Because thats where I learned my first bit of html. Anyways I posted just about every tutorial worth while on the tutorial page that I started. I'm sure you can find what you need somewhere in there.

The author(s) of the programming "For Dummies" is too brief in explaining basics to beginners. They make horrible references and horrible beginner's books.
