Help File

To me...what really makes AutoIt a superb scripting/programming language is the awesomely organized help file!

Does anyone know of a similar help file that makes C++ just as easy to reference syntax, structure, variables, etc?

AutoIt.chm

C++.chm

That is for sure. I have a good book I can recommend as it is good for a beginner as it takes you through everything even into DirectX and such while creating a game at the end of each chapter.

Will get the name of the book when I get home if you are interested.

Okay I am currently reading the book...

It is:

C++ Programming for the absolute beginner

By:

Dirk Henkemans

Mark Lee

Published:

Premier Press

ISBN 1-931841-43-8

It is an excellent book. It gives you the code at the end of every chapter to create a game using everything you have learned. In the US it should be around $29.99 in Canada $49.95 and in UK 21.99 pounds.

Another one I purchased about the same time. It is good as a reference. It has a reference library that takes up a little over half the book. So it is kinda like what was asked for above.

C++ In a Nutshell

A Language & Library Reference

By:

Ray Lischner

Published:

O'Reilly

ISBN 0-596-00298-x

The prices are US $39.95 and Canada $61.95.

The book contains:

A complete standard library reference, organized by header.

A reference to the C++ language itself.

A reference to the C++ preprocessor.

Reference chapters providing detailed information about statements, expressions, language syntax rules, functions, classes, templates, and other important topics.

Everything in this book conforms to the ISO/IEC 14882 standard plus Technical Corrigendum 1.

Hope this helps or someone enjoys the books like I do.
