Title: C++ programming problem...
Post by: alpha on March 14, 2010, 08:08:15 AM

Hi,

I'm new to all programming and for my project I have to write a program for a firefighting robot using C++. Can anyone suggest me some good books or sites I can use to learn this?
I tried learning C++ using some books like ''C++ primer by stephen prata'' and so on. But they seems to be focused more on computer programming and i just don't understand how to use them for robots. And other books  about "robot programming" use different programming languages. Is using C++ difficult? and should I learn some other programming language? then which one would be better? pls help.... I'm confused right now...

Thanx a lot...
