[GUIDE] From NOOB to PRO [C++]

Introduction:

Hello everyone i am making this guide to help everyone and anyone interested in learning C++. So let me make this short and sweet, but before you want to learn C++ i suggest you answer the following questions HONESTLY as possible. By the way, my answers are very long, and please don't reply to them.

QUESTIONS OF HONESTY:

1. Do you want to code for hacks(pleasure) or working on software's(work)?

If you chose only on pleasure, i assure you.. that you won't get far unless you are extremely dedicated. But i commend you for only doing this for pleasure, and don't let any of my words discourage you any bit. If you chose both, it will benefit you a bit more mentally that you are doing this more of a financial thing then a pleasure (meaning career). What i mean is that, usually people think hacking or making trainers are easy. Well its not.

2. Do you have 7 hours per week (minimum)?

If not, i suggest you not continue. Maybe because it is kind of hard if you don't practice everyday. Its like learning to play a guitar, playing it once a week only for 1 hour and a person who plays it every day for 1 hour. What is more beneficial is that you do not code all in one day, like a guitarist practicing for a song but spends 7 hours on one day instead of 1 hour each day. Hopefully you understand my logic.

3. So you want to know how to code right? Really?

But i have one last thing to say to you, please do not fool your self, because programming C++ is not easy one bit. Its like learning how to ride a bike. Your first going to suck really, really bad that its actually very sad (well that was my experience) but then you want to try more, and more. You might even get hooked on it because of the excitement (as a child), but then it gets even more difficult, you need to go bike a uphill, or even do long bike ride.

Brief comments:

Now lets get on with the guide, am i rite or what? There are many ways of learning C++, either by books or by videos. I have brought them both for you, for free. Also they are free so no need to worry!

So what programs do i use?

Well you can use any compiler you want. I suggest 'visual studio 8' (express edition is free but i don't like it too much). There are also other 3rd party compilers, but you need to look for that yourself. If you are starting out, i suggest you get the express edition/or try the trial of VS 8, if you can handle 1 or 2 weeks then get the full version.

LAST QUESTIONS:

So how can i go from noob to pro?

Be dedicated into learning and try to experiment. I know sometimes you might fail, and not like it one bit, BUT! You will enjoy your fruits when you get them. I know i can't give you any more help, but this is what it takes from being noob to pro, oh and that will take many, many years to accomplish; that is why you spend little time each day.

What are your honest comments and your experience so far?

Well to be honest i like to learn C++ at least 2-3 hours each day, and if i miss one day i spend more time because i want to catch up. Even though i set a goal for myself saying, i must read day 6 from my book, i didn't. But i did understand more about it and it helped me. But yeah, it gets boring sometimes (yes i know) but yeah, its worth the handwork. By the way, if you want to know about me a bit more keep reading this. Roughly 1 month ago i set a goal to learn C++ in 21 days, but it failed cause it got harder and harder. Then i stopped, at least for 30 days, but then i started again. Do you know why? Because of peoples comments and what they write. TBH i got inspired from BahBlah, yeah yeah i know. But it really made me laugh and actually cry (inside) when i saw that him worked so hard. So i started back into coding because of him.


Will you make more guides? Also is this fully done?

Maybe, not sure yet. But most likely only on C++. I think so (after i add more sources of books and videos), but if anyone brings up anything i will update it.

Thank me if this helped!

nice guide thanks for sharing

Lol. Your English is sorta funny. And some of the things you said sounded familar. Nonetheless, good job.

Many people get into programming for crazy reasons; they shouldn't if they won't dedicate sufficient parts of the life to learning and practicing. You made that evident. That's something people should hear so they don't fool themselves.

Just a last comment. Capitalize your "I's". It's annoying to read "i".

So I have to read the book on how to code?

Yes, or you can you know? Watch the videos. Or you can not do anything at all.

You should add these to your guide. They are pretty interesting.

Is much more enjoyable than school. Thats for sure.

Netro but you yourself does not know how to code C++. i'd like bahblah for a mentor.

I never said I did know how to code with C++. I'm almost finished with the basics xd.
