[mod- I'm letting this one through in the interests of being amiable. However, I would (personally) discourage too many more 'welcome' replies. If all 11,000+ members said 'hi' there wouldn't be much bandwidth left for discussing C and C++. ;) --mod PN]

Pa sounds like nice country, Poconos etc. I'm in NYC myself. Your question about a good book is somewhat of a subjective one. I myself would recommend Effective C++ by Scott Myers because Myers really is a C++ expert. I'm also a fan of the books written by Deitel. The Deitel books can run you over $100 if you get them new, so it might not be a bad idea to explore the web for free computer tutorials and even free textbooks. However, be careful not to read outdated materials, you should always look at the copyright date before you buy and/or read any book on information technology. C How to program by Deitel, gives you a nice overview of C and then brings you right into C++. Good luck and enjoy the group Nick from NYC ************ **Worried about job security?
