A good book for beginners (C++)
Hello guys, i'm a 14 year old guy (15 in 24th December :D) who loves computers, i've always wanted to program and make software. I really love Maths and ICT as it is my favourite subjects in school. I'm in my first year in GCSE and I have been one of the best students in my class so far for both subjects. My teachers really see that I have motivation it Mathematics and ICT. I have alot of experience with Photoshop aswell. I love computer games like LoL and CS:GO.
Enough about my background, I just want to to start learning C++. I have been watching thenewboston C++ tutorials and I learnt alot like functions, making a basic calculator, variables, if statements and so fourth. I just want a good beginners book that covers basic C++ in a level of English that I can understand. I have been looking to get C++ Primer 5th Edition and Thinking in C++ (2nd Edition) (Vol 1) but people left reviews on Amazon saying this book is only for intermediate level programmers and not recommended for begineers so I just really want a book that is of my kind of level of programming and simple English vocabulary that I can understand (I know there will be some words I will not understand but hey, there isn't a book that is perfect for everyone)

most expert programmers recommends intermediate level books to beginners, because the difference between beginner and intermediate is nearly 0 to them.
