Need some words of wisdom from C++ programmers....
I am learning C++ right now( using Sams Teach Yourself C++ in 21 days)....after learning like 17 hours out of 24 of C....the book was horrible I HAD to stop for my sake of my sanity...... and sometimes even to do some practice problems I have to go a look back at some source codes to see how things are done because I don't quite remember everything but when I see the codes I pretty much understand them and know what to do...is this a normal behavior for a newbie?
There are some real morons in this world please do not become one of them, do not become a victim of moronitis. PROGRAMMING IS THE FUTURE...THE FUTURE IS NOW!!!!!!!!!

Left cprog on 1-3-2005. Don't know when I am coming back. Thanks to those who helped me over the years.
I would say thats pretty normal.
After a while you should start to remember how things are done.
I am just learning windows programming from Tricks of the windows game programming gurus, and i keep double checking how things are done.
The best programmers don't know everything by heart. They are able to look things up and understand how to use em
thanks that really help

That's pretty normal. Programming is not as complicated as people think.
A really good book I recommend for anybody is Thinking in C++ by Bruce Eckel. You can get it from www.planetpdf.com/ . It's very useful.
wow elchulo2002,
u just grabbed my thought,I too was pondering over whether I'm the only person on this earth who keeps checking back the orignal reference(as a Newbie),and the replies by the gurus boosted my confidence ,to think I am not abnormal!!
That's nothing. I've found the best way I learn is to skim through the chapters I've already read, going back over stuff I've learned, before ever starting a new chapter. Whatever I'm learning now, I probably won't see how it's applied to the big picture until later chapters, and I seem to find new sentences in earlier chapters that I seemed to pass over before.
