Fellow PICsters, The text below is from a young friend of mine (12 years old) named Greg Meena who is just learning C++. He makes a request concerning a reference book for C++. I am not a C++ programmer, so I told him I would forward his email to the PIClist. If you have any suggestions, you may of course reply directly to the PIClist, or if you desire, feel free to email Greg directly at his family's email address which appears in the header of the email pasted in below. And thanks for your input, I know Greg will appreciate it.
