Ask HN: Learning C++ with a C Background
5 by cdeveloper | 1 comments on Hacker News.
Hi fellow HN'ers, As a long-time C on Linux developer, and someone who has some experience with languages such as Go and Python, I'm looking to finally learn C++ as I've ended realizing that I am skipping a huge amount of systems-level development opportunities (networking, embedded, compilers...) due to not learning C++. I'm looking for resources that don't start from zero given my background, but without teaching some sort of "C"ified C++ warts and anti-patterns. As someone who learns more by quickly jumping from theory to practice then back to theory, rather than studying a 1400 pages book, resources with focus on practical problems/projects would be very appreciated. Thanks!
