yeh this sounds awsome i think that we should first start out with C , and then get that " tricks of the windows game programming GUrus" becuz that book is primarly in C. i got that book but it has Collected dust and i havnt even opened but to get the CD out. you can buy them used off amazon for cheep. i bought a C++ book off amazon used that was usally $50 and i got it for $20 it had no problems neither. I have this wierd thing of buying books but not reading them.

You all know that gamedev.net has an IRC channel (AfterNET, #gamedev), right?

i love C++, i just read to chapter 2 in " The C++ Primer Plus fourth edition" and C++ is way better and easyer than C so far.
i can say hello world and call my own functions


#include
using namespace std;

int main()

{

cout << " Hello World.\n ";
return 0;
}

So you know C++ isn't really esier then C. Acttualy C++ is harder to learn because its C with a lot of new stuff. There might be a few things about how a C++ program is structured that lets you comprehend it better though.

Oh god, just meet up in #gamedev already please.

#gamedev can be found in irc.afternet.org.

Get an IRC client such as mIRC [blah] or VIRC [yay].

If c++ is easier for adam then thats great. He (probably has no previous language experience)? so the differences to him are unknown which will make learning c++ just as easy as learning c, but instead he skipped learning c syntax and is starting a clean slate with c++. i find it wonderful more people learning c++.

Also, just throwing my two cents in, but like previously posted, i think IRC is the best way for everyone to communicate in real time making the learning experience so much better and productivce. I would also suggest a mailing list for questions and/or ideas. Also logging IRC chats and posting them on the web for everyone in the group to see would benefit anyone who was absent for the irc session.

I wish this group much luck with your learning experience and its great to see people working in team enviroments early on. good luck!
