Learning technique
Hi
I am learning c++ from the book. What would you recommend: to got through the book as fast as resaonably possibly and then go back and study examples in more depth or to master each chapter and only then proceed any further?

I like the former but you should wait for a second opinion.
Personally I think you should read each chapter (don't go "as fast as possible", go fast, but make sure you actually understand the content). If you don't understand something or it bores you; skip it and the reread it in depth later.

My teacher gave me some nice advice (IMHO) on how to read these books:
| Read it like a math book, just skim the information, and focus more on the examples. |

You really need to read the information although, I think firedraco's teacher understood that most of what you'll read is going to be lost any time you code. A LOT LOT LOT of what you end up keeping comes through experience of coding!
shoot, my book sucks. my teacher doesnt even use it. he has his own notes that he uses. what helped me alot was this websites c++ tutorial. and also just make a program for no reason using a concept you just learned. It also helps me by trying to help others
