Learning Object-Orientation (C++)

Overheal

Any great place where I can read-off a tutorial on how to do Object-Oriented programming? Im using Borland C++ Enterprise 6.

I learned most of what I know from

You might want to rethink learning C++, I would advise you to begin with Java. Objects in C++ "talk" to each other using things called pointers, which aren't easy to get your head around. Things are a bit simpler in Java.

Im already in a programming course and we know all about em thank you ^_^ but its the down-season and I wanted to move on to objects. I think next year its C#...

If you are going to be using C# next year why would you bother messing about with C++. C# is a much more modern OO language and if you can already program in C it would be a very easy transition.

Visual Studio Express edition (C#) is free.

This is a very good tutorial on C#

You can get Visual Studio Express from here

cheers for that reference - it looks pretty ^_^

we bothered with C/C++ so we could get a taste for its performance power which is kinda uber when you give it a thought. I think we were only using standard C libraries anyway - just in a ++ environment /=|

Not terribly sure the motive behind knowing C# except maybe for the convenience factors (my god, the time I spent troubleshooting array-boundaries) and resource management... its for a Games course anywho and somehow I reckon I will be learning a 3rd or 4th language before I'm done.
