Hello.

 

From my side :

Core C++ : A Software Engineering Approach

I'm from Poland, we have some very good books, but not translate to English. So I can advice only this one.

Answer 3

Hi Asim,

The Best Book

1) C++: The Complete Reference, 4th Edition - Best & simple book for beginners
by Schildt, Herbert
Publisher: McGraw-Hill

2) "The C++ Programming Language " Best Book for learning indepth of C++

by Bjarne Stroustrup
Publisher: Addison-Wesley

My Suggestion: As you had learnt Visual Basic the best approach for quickly learning C++ is Take the notes on C++ Syntax and compare with VB Syntax as the logic is same for any Language.

Happy Programming.
