Learn about C++'s history. The best way to start programming a language is to learn its roots. Even though you may not understand everything that you read, some of these pages will introduce you to important terms that will come up later (such as "Object-Oriented Programming").
2Install a C++ compiler (and possible IDE). A compiler is required for programming in C++, because the actual source code has to be compiled into a file that your computer can run. If you are using Windows a good option would be Visual C++ 2010 Express, or if your using Linux a good one is Geany. Both come with an IDE (independent development environment) built in, which can make the process of writing source code easier. (NOTE: Many people online will recommend that you use the Bloodshed Dev-C++ IDE and compiler. DON'T. It has not been updated in 5 years and has pages and pages of known bugs, listed here: http://sourceforge.net/p/dev-cpp/bugs/)Learn how to use your IDE efficiently. Some IDEs that are out there have their own individual quirks that could get in the way down the road, so it would be beneficial to read through or keep a reference for the different options and settings of your IDE.
4Try out each new concept. An important part of programming is not only reading about the different concepts, but using them in your own code. Copy-pasting the code into your IDE will only go so far. It is much more beneficial to type out each example and even try creating your own program ideas that use the concept being taught to maximize the amount of information retained
