Homebrew Best Way to Learn C or C++ for 3DS Homebrew

[bennyman123abc]

Heyo! I am here to simply ask what the best approach to learning C or C++ for 3DS homebrew would be, or if there is somewhere else I should start. I took a small stab at 3DS homebrew a while back, only to face the hurdle of not knowing C or C++ very well. Any answer is appreciated!

I think that C/C++ tutorials for PC are a good start. You can read the examples or sourcecode of other homebrew apps if you got far enough to understand them.

Go to the library and get some books. They usually are a good start.
As for what books?...

Well, choose your preferred University, go into their web page, look for a good looking class on programming, take a look at the class contents on the web page and "suggested literature", take note, and then go to the library.
You could also look for suggestions, but I find this latter method good enough for quite a lot of topics.

What do you currently know? i.e. are you starting completely from scratch besides your attempts or did you start elsewhere e.g. Java?

Do you already have any programming knowledge?

Whenever I want to learn a new programming language I look at some simple programs to know the basics, then I set myself a little project. The project could be a simple text adventure or something. I then make it googling what I need, when I keep doing this I start to remember commands and the syntax.
