Book suggestion?

[thefoof]

Can anyone recommend a good book or website to learn c++ or c#? (whichever in your opinion is quicker to pickup). Purely just as a hobby and it would obviously be beneficial to learn working on something like this project.

Here is c++ primer 6th edition if you don't have it yet.

Also not sure if any of these links are still good but here you go.

If you want to learn C#, and are new to programming in general, I'd recommend Head First C#. I read the version for C# 3.5 a few years ago and it was a great starter book with a lot of fun projects to do. Books tend to be nicely structured vs tutorials online but it is totally possible to learn from reading tutorials.

Where C# is concerned, I seem to end up on CodeProject a lot. There's help all over the place, and I find books to be too impossible to navigate... so I tend to follow blogs or posts in places like StackOverflow.com, and discard those answers from fools
