Well, if you do not know C or C++ at all, I would suggest buying a good
thick book on C/C++ from a book store.  Two books that I like and which are
very good for learning  the language is :  C How To Program and C++ How to
Program by: H.M. Deitel/P.J. Deitel.  Also, though I do not know if it is
still in print is a book called Mastering Borland C++ by Tom Swan; it is a
huge 1568 pages and has in the back a huge reference to all the C and C++
functions.  It was invaluable to me when I was first learning and I still
use it as most of the functions are still the same except for the graphics
library functions.
Anyway, I hope I have been of help and good luck in your programming.
