_stink_ | should be on a t-shirt | 13:47 |
cmaloney | nobody could buy it but me. ;) | 13:48 |
jgransden | can anyone reccomend a good c++ book? | 21:38 |
jrwren | jgransden: they don't exist. | 21:42 |
jrwren | Effective Modern c++ is good | 21:43 |
jgransden | ahh, im doomed | 21:44 |
jrwren | and The C++ Programming Language by Stroustrup but make sure you get 4th edition | 21:44 |
jrwren | older editions don't cover modern C++ | 21:44 |
jrwren | and this is good too: http://www.amazon.com/Programming-Principles-Practice-Using-Edition/dp/0321992784/ref=pd_sim_14_2?ie=UTF8&dpID=51j679vpDGL&dpSrc=sims&preST=_AC_UL160_SR131%2C160_&refRID=1JNFFNG2JKMP6PXYSM9F | 21:44 |
jgransden | ok | 21:44 |
jrwren | but there is a LOT of really bad C++ books out there. | 21:44 |
jrwren | most are just terrible | 21:44 |
jrwren | there are some good videos from cppcon too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hEx5DNLWGgA | 21:45 |
jgransden | sweet, ill check that out. I have a class in it comming up and i dont want to be unprepared | 21:46 |
jrwren | what is the class? | 21:46 |
jrwren | its likely its taught poorly too :( | 21:46 |
jrwren | c++ is one of the most misunderstood programming langauges ever. | 21:47 |
jgransden | probably, evey thing else that ive taken has been | 21:47 |
jrwren | lol | 21:47 |
jrwren | yay college! | 21:47 |
jgransden | yea... | 21:47 |
cmaloney | I really didn't like the Stroustrup book | 21:47 |
jrwren | cmaloney: the 4th edition? | 21:48 |
cmaloney | The edition prior | 21:48 |
cmaloney | It's like everything wrong with C++ | 21:49 |
cmaloney | K&R: small and concise | 21:49 |
cmaloney | C++: 900-1300 pages | 21:49 |
jrwren | yeah, 3rd edition was from 1997. C++ dark ages. | 21:50 |
jrwren | K&R doesn't cover the c std lib. | 21:52 |
jrwren | there are some intro chapters for free here: http://www.stroustrup.com/3rd_tbl.html | 21:52 |
cmaloney | Right, but even with teh std lib book it doesn't reach 900+ pages. ;) | 21:52 |
jrwren | right. its smaller | 21:53 |
jrwren | smaller still: Go | 21:53 |
jrwren | :p | 21:53 |
jrwren | smaller still: modula-3 ;] | 21:53 |
cmaloney | not h elping. :) | 22:03 |
