ProgrammingThis forum is for all programming questions.
The question does not have to be directly related to Linux and any language is fair game.

I'm a sophmore in High school, this is my firstprogramming experiance. I'm using the c++ compiler from bloodshed.net. I was wondering if anybody knows of any good up to date tutorials. Most Of the ones I've ggogled for are out of date.
Ok, that's all good. But I have a compiler already and with a dial-up modem, it's ot really plausible to download another. Thanks for the sites Qt, I'll look into them. ANy other suggestions on tutorials?
Also, if you find that online tutorials are insufficient, it would be good to buy a C++ programming book. I'd recommend "Ivor Horton's Beginning C++" by Wrox or "Teach Yourself C++ in 21 Days." Both are pretty good.

I would recommend CodeWarrior or Visual!
If your running Linux: Eclipse Platform
You can also try Magic C++. A handy visual remote Unix and Linux C/C++ IDE under windows just like VC++. It provides a "hello world" template, you can generate a "hello world" project by project wizard, you'll get something fairly easy to use. You can edit the source codes and debug it handily with this VC++ like IDE :-)
Even though I didn't begin this thread, I'm really glad I became a part of it because those free online books (Thinking in C++) are EXCELLENT! They're much much better than any other little tutorial I've ever found. Ahh, I just love a good tech forum.
The thinking in C++ books, do they have examples of code? Or are they a stright book that require you to think up uses of the ideas given? I'm a beginner so I don't have the prgramming mindset yet.
Yes, they have code examples. I'm perusing the books right now, so I haven't had time to get all the way through them, but I've already run across several working examples that show how things work. So far, the examples aren't really useful for real-world projects, but they do a good job of teaching the language.
