Well,this discussion has been useful to me since I am in SEM-II Engg. and they are teaching us C++.
please read Stroustrup after learning a bit.
I would like to ask Pradeepto what does he mean by a bit.Exactly how much is a bit? Thanks for the recommendation of books.If the library doesn't have them,as our's usually doesn't,where can we get the books?Are there online subs available?

Ummm .. .your call. If you want you can start from it as well. Its all up to you. But you would have been comfortable if you already knew some. But nothing stopping you from grabbing it right now. Your call.

Sure they are available ( local editions in India even ). All of them that I mentioned in the other mail. I am sure Stroustrup will be available in the library, so check it out first before you buy it.
Cheers!

Sometime on Jan 20, C.E. Hariharan assembled some asciibets to say:

I've been programming for over 20 years, and have been doing C++ for over 8 of those. I've never read Stroustrup. OTOH, I have friends who've been doing C++ for 4 years, but have read Stroustrup completely, and I have friends who fall at all levels between. We all have comparable C++ skills.
IOW, and as KG would say - different people have different requirements. You'll know when it's time for you to read Stroustrup because you'll actually be able to read it.
