cout << "Hello World";

I am new to this forum, but not to programming. I am currently a student, I know Visual Basic .NET and Java pretty well. I am hopefully going to be moving onto C++ this year at school. Anyone have a book for C++ they recommend? One that will challenge me a bit, because I am already familiar with the basics like syntax and basic I\O.

I forgot to ask earlier, how do I change my signature? Or is there a minimum post\time requirement?

Welcome aboard! There's a lot of good books, but I recommend you start with Thinking in C++, since it's a free download.

Yeah, there's a few posts and a time limit I believe. I think it was recently changed to that.

I recommend reading some of Bjarne's literature on C++, there's a link here with his own FAQ's and whatnot:
Stroustrup: C++
His books here:
Stroustrup: Books

I almost forgot, Welcome!
