That's easy. Nada. I do have a copy of K&R C book at home. Someone here has some C++ books, though I haven't looked at them. I look up a lot of stuff at www.cplusplus.com For the most part, I have found C++ rather opaque. Read that to mean most books that I looked at were terrible. Put me to sleep in less than 5 minutes - really boring. Although, to be fair, maybe I wasn't 'ready' to take on OOP and C++ at the same time. Now that I have some (ok, a little) object oriented experience in python, tackling C++ doesn't quite seem as bad. Many of the concepts transfer over. Though I have to admit, C++ makes for much crappier reading code and you have to work a lot harder at it... Jeesh, freaking friends... If people know of some readable C++ texts, let me know. It wouldn't hurt to have a good book around!
