Wow I managed to get through the first 7 lessons of my "Teach yourself C in 21 days" book... that means I already have done a third!!!

Now I know enough basics to experiment with writing simple programs... I love it!

If anyone has some good advice for me, especially concerning my compiler (Microsoft Visual C++ 5.0, I have no idea how to deal with all this workspace and project stuff), please tell me.

I concur, I like the ability to do object-oriented architecture in C++..

and would this book be called "Teach youself C++ in 21 days" by any chance?

if you're planning on actually doing real programming, continue with the C stuff. Almost all the languages made after 1972 are based on it. Anything made before that sucks, except C itself

. C++ is ok, but really only usable if whatever you're doing is a good c++ thing (games... that's all I can thing of...). Other wise, doing something like a text editor in C++ is a waste of source code, libs, and all sorts of stuff...

code:

#!/usr/bin/perlwhile ($spydirs_intelligence < 1) {
     print "p3rl 0wns j00
";
}
MainLoop;

try running that and see what happens

code:


#!/usr/bin/perl -wmy $CatKnight_intelligence = 0;
while($CatKnight_intelligence < 1) {
    print "j00 don't know p3rl!
";
}

Nice try though. Your script won't even run. Mine will. And it will till the end of time.

... you're a dipshit, ck. I know perl. You mixed some VB in there or something. I dunno, but that was ugly. Now, lets see you code some INTERCAL or BrainFuck and I'll stop calling you a dipshit republican.
