I recently bought the C++ Training Guide by Steve Heller and the CD is broken. Does anyone who owns this book know whether it's necessary because for a newbie like myself I'm finding it slightly difficult to understand some of the basics.

Also, I've been using cmd (and notepad) to teach myself before this and was wondering whether the techniques taught are used on cmd.
Are there any programs I should be downloading?

Thanks

Thread 'Microsoft Technical Interview question'

I have watched some youtube...
