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?
Although I haven't watched this one in particular, I watched his C tutorial and it is probably one of the best ones out there, so I'm guessing his C++ tutorial must be good as well.
C++ is not good to start with, but there are good books around like "How to learn C++ in 21 days". If you still want to learn C++ take a look at the framework Qt.
