Hey, guys! I stopped playing ROBLOX a month or so ago, but I love the forum and community so I decided to stop by and ask a question.

I'm loving this guys' tutorials so far, but for C++, do you guys suggest Bucky? He's also know as "TheNewBoston" on Youtube.

Just asking a question on your personal opinion of him. :) C++ is going great since I had a wonderful fluent foundation in Lua. It's like a piece of cake so far.

Lack of consistency.
Lack of const-correctness.
Passing objects into functions by value.
Using the whole namespace; polluting the global namespace.
Teaches little about the language and how you should use it.

Those are a few things wrong with his video tutorials.

Well, I've tried countless tutorials on it, and I couldn't understand at all how it related to Lua, until I saw his tutorials. So for the beginning stages of C++, I think I'll stick with Bucky.

I don't recommend his tutorials at all. Anyhow, I never saw his C++ tutorials, but I remember looking at his Java tutorials. This is what it looked like:

public class Bucky extends Apple{
public String[] girlfriends;
// And so on
}
