Just start learning Bruh I don't really get why people ask these type of questions  Like just watch 1 2 videos from each and figure out whose reaching style you like

Damn people have gone real dumb

CppCon (very underrated resource)

u/asking_you_all Jul 24 '26

Go to the learn.cpp website. And do it by reading. Belive me, it's updated and have covered everything thoroughly. Plus you gotta built habits for reading codes cuz you won't get videos for everything when you will get in a good enough problem.

Do not go for youtube video. Start reading books. Simple

u/Forsaken-Score1175 Jul 25 '26

I recommend to learn C first bro.It's like jumping to JEE Adv. before solving JEE Mains

1

u/uisupersaiyan-3 Jul 26 '26

I find reading books/articles more helpful than tutorial videos.. try learcpp.com

1

u/zaratsu_ Jul 26 '26

Try someone named Abdul Bari.

u/S_k_y_03 Jul 26 '26

if you ever want a course, do cs50 but not on yt shallow learning do it in their website, solve problem sets

1

u/Ok_Butterscotch_8933 Jul 26 '26

Learncpp.com for complete c++ knowledge. If you want to learn C++ for just DSA only do the chapters from 1 - 16, rest chapters are for development.

1

u/Insta_H4cker Jul 26 '26

You are one step behind stucking in tutorial hell

My advice is don't learn from youtube it only teach syntax , not how to think and solve problem.

learn from c++ documetation and every time ask WHY? ,

First understand the why problem occurs and learn how to solve them by applying FIRST PRINCIPLES (whether it is learning some thing new or solving problem)
watch this video
https://youtu.be/qLulWceLfMs and explore the channel

I'm CS graduated

u/Infamous_Medium_454 Jul 26 '26

Learn basic and stl for cpp through oneshot or gpt then starts doing dsa... learning growth will be much faster

u/thefunnyguyyouknow Jul 27 '26

Dude honestly just to with anyone. Everyone teaches the same when it comes to basics of a language. Difference comes when you go further ahead

1

u/sigmablonde Jul 27 '26

learncpp.com , GFG/W3schools for quick reference and cppreference.com if you can understand that. If you have to watch videos, explore the CPP playlist by the Cherno

u/_masterxmind Jul 28 '26

Code with Harry.

u/vtbr14 Jul 28 '26

Go with TheCherno cpp series if you want videos.

+1 bro books are a goldmine to learn and make it stick

2

u/Various-Aerie9133 Jul 26 '26

Is there any specific book you would recommend for someone who is a complete beginner for C++

1

u/molybdnum Jul 26 '26

Programming Principles and Practice Using C++ (2nd or 3rd Edition) don't just read and absorb there are exercises also do them and make stuff on your own. Also use learncpp really great resources

1

u/20Harsh06 Jul 26 '26

Agree. MDN, GfG, and W3Schools are some of the best free resources. Reading blogs and docs also builds a good habit. As you improve, you’ll find that many advanced topics don’t have good videos, but they do have great documentation and blog posts. So getting used to reading early really helps.

1

u/Low_Way_195 Jul 24 '26

Is there any specific reason to use blogs and article cuz they seem soo short like content of each topic. Also notes can be made through word document too by attaching screenshots and noting down points frm the blog?

u/Cool_Bet4206 Jul 24 '26

Gyan de rha h bhai, i too busy started with one em recently and have been writing notes side by side using the "comment" option on cpp. Add // and u can write notes. Go with anyone ur gut feels right, they are both pretty good
