32 hour clock
voidmain:
Maybe you should have stayed awake in math class?
Calum:
he was asleep in class because they forced him to conform to the evil 24 hour clock...
also, X11, that book, C++ for dummies, i saw that in the bookshop last month, but did not buy it because the CD that came with it was windows only. is this the same book? is it windows only? also, i think the same went for the idiot's guide to C++. How the fuck can they have fucking windows books for a unix programming language? that's the bollocks of being portable! you get walked all over.
Can anybody recommend a widespread starter book of this type for me that will ignore windows and concentrate on unix? what about one of the 'Sam's learn *** in 24 hours' books? do you think?

Learn C in 24 hours, Learn C in 21 days are my first C programming books.
Also, I read Learn C++ in 21 days. I prefer the 24 hours ones, they usually get to the point.
oh, and X11...
shouldn't that be "std::cout" or have "using std::cout" in the beggining?

The CD comes with the Gnu C Compiler "gcc" and it works on MS-DOS (its DJGPP) unless there is a new version. But it is Free Software on the CD so you could get it anyway... all Linux distro's come with the compilers.
So get it its good!
Master of Reality:
making it a sourceforge product might be a good idea. I am plannin' to by some C and C++ books soon (very soon). I have fallen assbackward into a lil' cash (its hard being an unemployed student).
