Can anyone recommend a good C++ tutorial?

[CKDragon]

Hi guys, I took a few C++ courses as a freshmen, but that was 3 years ago and now I want to finish off the CompSci minor program at my school but I forget so much. I was hoping that maybe someone could recommend a good tutorial online that I can go step by step and re-learn the stuff I'll need to know to pick it back up.

Any help is greatly appreciated, thank you for your time.

I always find it easiest to learn by doing, especially when it comes to programming. you hack enough programs together that you remember what you were hacking with.

for that I find that sites like cppreference.com are useful.

If you really want to go the step by step route, I'd check out a textbook from your library and do the problems in the back of each chapter.

Bruce Eckel's Thinking in C++ is reputedly pretty good.

Yeah, thinking in c++ is good. cppreference.com is good. The sgi stl online reference is good. The C++ faq lite is good. That's pretty much all I use, other than googling for the occasional oddball issue.

Besides using MFC and VC++ is there a way to make GUI s in C++ ?

:ucks::

Of course, there are a ton of ways. You could use the win32 api (which I understand is the plain C library upon which MFC is built), or you could use qt, or you could use gtk (C), or gtkmm (C++), or Tk, or wxwindows, or you could use picogui, etc etc.
