This usage-oriented online C++ tutorial is intended to help you get your C++ experience on the right foot. Using some Macromedia Flash animations where needed, you will find here all the required information to get efficiently started on your usage of C++ language, independently of the platform you are planning to use it on. After a short introduction aimed at getting you started with the required tools to write and build C++ code source into executable binaries, you will get thrown into the basics of C++ and its control structures, as an algorithmic starting point. Still oriented on the usability, you will be pointed, along with detailed explanations, to the C-style standard functions that can be used in your C++ source code to easien usual tasks. The tutorial will then lead you into the Object Oriented paradigm on C++ language, which will be a must-have in order to understand all the STL(Standard Template Library)-related info that you will find in the last part of this tutorial.
