Hi!
I'm Juris and I want to start programming C++. I already know a really small bit of Java (because of android), XHTML and CSS, and I am halfway of knowing Android Studio (this was the thing where I learned a couple Java and Java Script commands :D ). I learned from www.thenewboston.com (aka Bucky), but his C++ tutorials semm to be a bit confusing. Please write any tips and tricks to get started in a really stable and Non-Confusing way. I "may" check out the text tutorial at this website (I am not a big "fan" of reading, sooo...). Any help or tip is useful for me. And also I am 12 years old.
The tutorials on this website are quite good. http://www.cplusplus.com/doc/tutorial/
And, honestly, if you think these tutorials involve a lot of reading, you probably haven't tried a book about coding yet.
As for tips - use a well known compiler, so you can google your issues (Clang, MinGW, TDM MinGW or MSVC) and use google all the time, GIYF (Google Is Your Friend). If you can't find an answer to your problem, then feel free to ask in this forum - that's what it's for.
I learned quite a bit from Bucky's C++ tutorials, it is important to understand every concept before you move on to the next video though. Most of the learning I did happened in the IDE, learn a new function, test it out, learn a new function test it out, learn something new everyday, I have a C++ book next to my bed that I pick out a new function and will attempt to use it the next day. This forum is a great place to post your code you may have a question about. Good luck!
P.S. If you aren't a fan of reading... are you sure you want to be reading hundreds of lines of code?
