    Well, I looked up istream::get on my compiler's MSDN and missed the prototype at the top:
    int get();

    So I found the next simplest one and used that instead
    Just Google It. √

    As to the FAQ I trully believe it needs to be updated, just keep coding and experimenting and coming back to the board, that's what it's hear for.

    Ah, awesome links!

    I'm about to check out that "Bruce Ecekl's Thinking in C++ 2" here in a few minutes, so hopefully that will give me some help.

    Another awesome book that will introduce you to ideas C++ and then explain it well is "C++ How To Program" by the Deitels. I got a copy on either Ebay or Amazon.com for less than $10.
