After looking around for a good C++ forum I decided to give these forums a try
I just started learning C++ recently, and I'm on Day 16 of Sams Teach Yourself C++ in 21 Days (by Jesse Liberty). On March 1st I'm going to be competing in: http://contest-cemc.uwaterloo.ca/ccc...overview.shtml
Not so much to win, simply because I know that University of Waterloo (where I'm thinking of taking courses) checks to see if you have participated in that contest (along with others).
I was wondering if anybody could give me some good newb C++ pointers. (not the kind that points to a variable's location in the memory and can be accessed by dereferencing! )
PS: I'm not a complete newb. I learned PHP and have some previous Javascript experience...so some of the basic ideas and concepts are looking familiar.
Thanks!
