Good day to all! I want to learn how to program in C++ from scratch. What books or resources do you recommend?
Until that time, I did not program at all, only administration. I'm going for a master's degree in IT in the UK, and they require good programming skills in C ++.

The best of all commentators are those who advise "to come up with a problem" and to learn science further in battles. You can read books for hundreds of years, but the brain is such a thing that without motivation, which will be an invented task, it is not inclined to remember anything for a long time.
A person who reads books thinks that now he will learn "how to" immediately from the right source. But in order to understand why it is right that way, you need to compare it with something, namely with your own experience of what is wrong. It’s better to start writing your own client-server chat, get a working shit code, and then realize what a freak you are and how you could do better here.
Only the presence of such emotional events can create lasting neural connections. And reading the right authoritative books has not yet led to anything good.

Come up with a task for yourself:
For example, "I want a client-server chat."
When studying the language, be aware that just about soon I will be able to complete it and this moment will come, and then you will not have such questions;)

Learn to program in assembly language and after that C ++ will go like nuts with beer.)

From experience I will say that there is a development and debugging of programs such as drivers, bottlenecks, loaded things, Linux. I don't think the master's program was done in C++. The subject area obliges, and it can be any. From processors to CUDA and rendering. Most likely, you will need experience and publications, so xs what are you going to catch.

"Eckel. "Philosophy of C++"", take a look at this variant.

Challenge yourself: write your shared_ptr in C++ using templates. To do this, you will have to learn the basics of C ++, classes and delve into memory management.

Learning C++ without C is quite difficult, since pointers and memory are mostly covered in C courses, while C++ is covered superficially. I recommend video tutorials from the Specialist, at the beginning watch C, then as a continuation of C ++, they explain perfectly, good teachers, after reading cult books. If you need links here:
www.ex.ua/12538212 - [Specialist] Programming in C (C)
www.ex.ua/15603714 - (Specialist) Programming in C ++
Most likely they will be available only with Ukrainian. ip, you can use a proxy or search on other resources.
