Tutorials?

Hi, completely overwhelmed with my first ever C++ class and feel like I don't have any proper understanding of the basics.

Does anyone have a recommended source/tutorial that completely starts from step one?

Thank you for any links or ideas!
https://www.learncpp.com/

this can help too but it isnt kept current:
https://www.cplusplus.com/doc/tutorial/

you might also read a non language specific intro to computer programming, such as
http://guyhaas.com/bfoit/itp/Programming.html
just to cover the day one stuff again.

As for this site, ask questions is fine. Normally we want code (to show your attempt, along with words about what is not working or what you can't figure out) if you want a program back, but if you just started and are totally confused, try to figure out what it is that you don't understand and express that, and we can try to help.

What compiler/os are you using? Have you got your first c++ program to compile and run OK yet?

If not, try this for starters:

1
2
3
4
5
#include <iostream>

int main() {
	std::cout << "Hello there from C++\n";
}

Literally THOUSANDS available online, you just have to do a 'net search.

Most are code snippets, many are not worth the time because they use bad practices such as including non-standard headers.

The two mentioned, here and at Learn C++ are two of the best.
