Any book readers out there? witch is better Learn C++ in 21days or Thinking in C++?

[struntz]

Hello everyone!
I was wondering what would be a better book to start off with, i'm totally new to C++ i just came from VB
I finally got the Borland Compiler installed, never knew a isntallation of a compiler could be that confusing heh, Welll anyways, what would be a better book, for a total newbie in C++, "Thinking in C++" or "Learn C++ in 21 days"?

I think "Thinking in C++ is much more organized and stuff but it says like in chapter 3 i do expect u to know some sorta lang, like c or pascal or basic(doing alot of functions and subs i guess?)

But if you know witch would be better, please post it!

Thanksf or listening,


Cory

Ah...functions and subs. Well - C++ gets that one out of the way - there are only functions (hooray!).

Having read both...go for "Thinking in C++" (you can download it as PDF somewhere).
