C++ is pretty tough for your first experience. Codeacademy is a really good place to learn though

[digitalsonic]

agreed C++ isn't easy, java or python is best place to start

[sqwert]

I can teach you with remote lessons if you are interested

[deadstroke 105]

If you learn C++ properly though, you won't have a problem with other languages, it's a good base

[Foobarbaz]

I would start with python and then C++ only afterwards

[jborfshoff]

I agree with most on this thread that Python is a good starting point.

Personally, I learnt C first and then C++ after.

At the end of the day, if you put the time in I'm sure which ever way won't be an issue. Best thing is just to have a crack and there are plenty of online resources, forums etc. to help you out if you are stuck.

Thea create thing about C / C++ is that it can run any pc / os (mac linux windows) Its a hard first language though. Without someone to help you through you may want to start out with something like python and use codeacademy to get you going . Then switch to c++ after you understand fundamental conecpts

Agree, Java/C# is much easier to pick up first.

i'm currently learning c++ in university and im still struggling despite having learned basic java. so really, is there any good places to do some self directed learning?

[StingRay]

C++ is rather tough language, because of all the low-level concepts you need to grasp.

For the environment, I'd recomment either Windows + VisualStudio or (better) - unix-like system with all the toolset (e.g. GCC). Unixes are harder to start with, but you'll get much more from learning these environments.

As for the sources - Codeacademy, Coderbytes, GeeksForGeeks (for learning about data structures and algorithms).

I'd say it'll take you around 2 years of regular work (it doesn't have to be intense, but it has to be regular) to make it and to feel comfortable in the language.

Python is great way to start

[sexybanaantje]

C++ is really hard to learn, if you don't have any experience with programming in general it can be really difficult, learning C# first worked for me. that learns you the OOP style of programming. this will also teach you some tricks you can carry over to C++. TheCherno is a great youtuber who makes C++ videos.

[dratini]

start with python first

[sasdasgfg]

Agreed, take it easy and learn an easier language like Python or C#, personally I learned Python first

[anippleni]

If you've never programmed before, I would start with something like C or Python

[chickeneligible1]

C++ is not straightforward because its functional

[dsflkjlkj]

MAybe consider Python first. THere's a ton of great tutorials out there. That way you get the basic concepts in, after which you can dive deeper into C++

[parcheesy]

How similar is C to C++? In my university we mostly program using C such as arduino and was wondering what the differene between the two were
