arghhhhh!!!!!!! 7 years ago i had a rough idea of what all this is about,NOW i have started to read an online tutorial and my head is gonna explode!!!!!! any good EASY sites to get the info off to relearn these bloody codes?

 

Why C mate?

Most stuff can be done in Basic these days (PIC Basic, Visual Studio etc)

 

its just all in the same tutorial mate,trying to brush up on things,BUT i hate when people explain in geeky computer expert talk rather than english!!

 

Just download sourcecode for a few things and read through it, make a few tweaks etc.

Thats how i normally learn new languages or refresh.

C in the pure form isnt really used anymore so i would concentrate more on C++ probably, but obviously depends on the specifics of what you want to use it for???

 

more c++ i want,c is not really needed anymore is it,but its just what the tutorial was called

 

Ummm what the hell are you guys on about!

 

Take a look at C# mate

 

its VERY geeky mate, i think ill get some specs with tape on!

 

like this:
#include <stdio.h>

enum days {monday=1,tuesday,wednesday,thursday,friday,saturd ay,sunday};

int main()
{
enum days today = monday;

if ((today == saturday) || (today == sunday))
{
printf("Weekend\n");
}
else
{
printf("Go to work or school\n");
}

return 0;

}

 

my advice, if you dont need to.. dont bother, far to complicated and no one uses it much anymore anyway

If ya asked me 5 years ago when I was learning it might have been able to help.

Just stick C++ turorials in google, that should come up with something...

 

I used to program a lot of ECU's in C++ years ago, but its so long since ive used it now that i doubt i could write "hello world" without a syntax error or two!

 

Learning c is a waste of time unless your using it as the bases to learn c++,c# or java (or even javascript).

c++ is widely used but is starting to loose it appeal. Plus its an object orientated extension to c and hence is really a bodge IMO plus it's a bastard to learn and code in it.

If I was you I would learn either C# ot Java as these are c based languages but were written from the ground up to be object orientated. Also these both support garabage collection which c++ does not-that probably means nothing to you but trust me that's a good thing!!.

Anyway no matter what object orientated language you choose (c++,c#,java) you will need to understand the principles of object orientated programming which is actually harder than learning the actual language. Also using a tool like Visual Studio to write your code will help you write and learn to code and save you a huge amout of hassle!

Good luck!
