Hey,
Over the past 3 years I've been trying to learn enough programming to really become what is called a core programmer. The sort of guy who can really do EVERYTHING he wants.
I've done some C++, i understand just the basics of pointers and i really don't know how to go ahead with it (btw i've covered pointers from the Robert Lafore book)
I'm also starting Python, nothing flashy there yet though.
Recently someone told me that if i really want to be able to break a system or understand what faults there are then C/C++ would help, but i really don't understand how. Is there some topic that i just haven't heard of? Someone mentioned something called a 'segment fault'. I have no idea about this and REALLY want to learn. Could someone point me to the right web-page / book? I know there are a hundred sites out there but the trouble is a lot of them are misleading. And i really don't wanna waste a lot of time just to ealise that i learnt more or less nothing.
Help really required!
