I got myself a C++ book today for very cheap, though I wonder if anyone happens to know if it's good or not. It's Osborne The Complete Referance Borland C++ Builder. It looks good, and I got it for about half the retail price.

The only thing is that it's Borland C++, which is slightly different, but not much. I've got a book on standard C++ as well. I can help if you need anything.

Well, when it comes to writing an expository essay about counter-insurgent tactics, I'm of the old school. First you tell them how you're going to kill them. Then you kill them. Then you tell them how you just killed them.

Ya well it seems to be good, though it does only really cover basics unlike my C++ text book from school, but I only payed 25 dollars canadian, and the suggested american price was 50 so I felt it was a good deal. I also checked reviews on Amazon which said even though its no where near what the title says it was good. I'll read some more of it later.

Congratulations Mad Ivan!

Some people say you can download Borland C++ for free, though i've never seen it anywhere.
