It all depends on how much time you spend on it, and how quickly you yourself grasp things.

A good couple months usually is how long it takes to get most of the basics done depending on how fast you learn.

If you just read it, you won't full grasp it. You must go and play with the codes before you full grasp it.

I'm told by tons of people that it's good to find other source code and mess with it, to produce different results.

This is also a good way to learn. I learn alot by looking and analysing source code. When you analyse source code you run through it in your mind on what its doing, and if you dont know, then you look it up or try to figure it out. Eventually you basically learned a whole lot and didnt notice it Razz

When you get stuck, go example hunting, then with your (hopefully) newly found knowledge, try to do it yourself.

I myself learn the basics in no time I do have experience in other programming languages which helps. C++ is quite similar to other stuff I have been messing with. And I would suggest getting your hands onto some good C++ cookbooks.

Then when you know already the very basic stuff start making your own codes, compiling them and if they have errors try figure them out. It is good to have errors, you wont make them the next time Wink
