This is why I've struggled learning C in general (although I have a decent book at the moment and am getting there slowly). There seems to be a big gap between "basic" and "advanced" information that isn't filled or explained. You are expected to be one or the other and my learning always stagnates. I want to know how things work otherwise I would stick with Python, Perl etc etc.On 15/12/10 22:05, Simon Williams wrote:OK perhaps I should say looking for example uses that dont make some Boost libs look like a solution to a problem that doesn't exist other than ideologically. There's a lot of 'you do it like this' but no 'why you don't do it like that' which for me is often the clue to the whole thing.On 15/12/10 13:16, tom wrote:Anyone used boost much? I'm trying to find intros that dont assume you already know what your doing...Depends which bit you're trying to use it for. Searching for a boost tutorial is like trying to search for a tutorial for the standard C library. It doesn't really work like that.
