Tutorials about C++

What is C++?

C++ is a programming language used on most computer platforms for creating computer applications and games. On the windows platform it has been, to a large extent, superseded by C# but the programming principles that are used in C++ are largely the same.

What do the tutorials cover?

It is my intention that the programming tutorials will cover basic programming techniques ranging from how to create a project in C++ right and individual tutorials on commonly used control structures such as for, if, while and so on.

Initially the tutorials will focus on console applications as these are platform independant and will allow me to focus on ANSI standard C++ rather than Microsoft specific variations.
