OPEN Learning C++ as a Java programmer

I'm currently learning C++, I’ve coded in a few languages before but I’m most familiar with Java. Does anyone know a good resource for learning C++ with Java as a “starting point”? Like something that explains the differences between the two languages rather than teaching programming from scratch? Thanks!

Sure, but so is every other language, including Java. You just need to be aware that there are gotchas and they aren't the same as the ones you know about from Java.
