Hi, I joined this community some time ago because I am interested in learning the C++ language, since I heard it is the most used for programming games and well, that's the career I want to get into. I was wondering if anyone could recommend a book or two that could help get me started; I basically know nothing besides the fact that C++ uses brackets; I think 'utterly clueless' would be the best term to describe myself in this situation. I'm taking a C++ course next year, but judging by the quality of my previous programming class I'm not sure how much I'm going to get out of this one.

Thanks for any support; I'm really looking forward to learning this programming language. It seemed to stick out from all the other ones I was doing research on, you know?
