This might strike some of you as retarded, but I still am a newbie and I am hackingly (even tho thats not a word lol)retarded....

I've been researching C++ programming lately, and I've already stopped reading some books becuz they are too fancy worded or they are just too complicated . Also it seems that everytime i see a list or something recommending C++ programming books its always different then other lists, it seems like there is no real popular praised book on learning C++.

Can some1 please tell me a good book for learning C++ (and one that is VERY simple as I'm a big nEwBiE)
