Much like the C++ book from its creator Bjarne Stroustrup, The K&R book might not be the best way to learn as a beginner. its more of a concise technical reference to the language, than a step by step learning course.  though, every C/C++ programmer should have them in their library.

I'd recommend a book but I think the best way to learn as a beginner is watching the fine courses here at WiBit.net. 

Hello,

I dont even have programmers training wheels on yet, basically a job I perform needs a program so I need to make one. I have been following the tuts from the start but maybe someone could point me in the right direction, as this is time sensitive. I need to make a program that navigates through my companies website. Its pretty basic but might be harder than I think. I have multiple employees who I send out emails to each of their customers for them. The site was not designed by me and is horrible. To send out each email I have to login as employee, go into recent customer activity. At this point I am on a page with a lits of customers without any inormation on them. Basically i just need to know what language type of program would do something like this so I know what i need to start learning. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

This is where i woul;d start the program,

1. it would need it to click the link to the first customer.

2. Click the link to view customer history

3. if the costomer has spent money since the last email there will be a link at the top, if they have not it will simply show my last email.

4. A. if there is a link for a recent transaction I would need the program to clikc it

     B. If not and my last email is up there instead, I would need the program to start back at step 1 on the next customer

5. If Last step was 4A I would then need the program to view a specific line and based on peramiters make the next next step

6. A. if the parameters are of a certain value It would back to step 2 View customer history

    B. If the perameters arent of that value the program would need to go to step 1. and start over with the next customer

7. If Last step was 6A the program would need to click "send email"

8. Program would then paste a specific text and send a coupon based on the remembered value from step 5

9 . Click send.

10. Back to step one on next cusomer.

Wow i guess that that takes more than I thought it would once I wrote it all out.

Hi guys,

Just finished my first year of college at Dublin Institute of Technology. It was by chance that I stumbled onto this site (so glad that I did), whilst looking for information on pointers. Love the site and your charismatic approach to teaching. Keep up the excellent work. 

Adrian.
