Hi, guys. I actually approached learning C++ through first studying C. From my own perspective, it did help. But basing from experience, and I know most of you guys agree, learning C/C++ or any language depends on the learning material you have at hand. There's about thousands of tutorials and books about them. You just have to find one you're most comfortable going through.

For me personally, I like those that teaches me as if speaking to a 12 year old. Who cares. I find it more effective, specially to someone like me who came from med school and has absolutely no programming background.

I've encountered some books and tutorials on C++ but requires that you have some, even thorough, knowledge of C. If you wanna study C first because you have time and you're patient enough and you're not in a hurry, then wouldn't that be better?
