   latest c++ version
  hi,I''m going browsing for books on C++ with my dad tomorrow, and seeing as how this is probably the stuff i''m going to be using for the rest of my life (or at least career), I would like to start with the latest version of c++, but this is the pickle (pickle, get it? seeing as how my nick is picklejuice, pretty funny éh?  ), what IS the newest version of C++? Also, if any of you can recommend books (keep in mind that i''m belgian though, and I speak Dutch), that would help me alot.thanks,Pieter-Paul 
  The latest version of the C++ standard is ISO/IEC 14882:2003 also known as C++98 with TC1. However, knowing what the latest version of the standard is will mean very little when going book buying as the only mass market printed version of the standard that has every been available is the latest version. Also, having a copy of the standard also means little when just learning C++.I can''t recommend any books specifically in Belgian or Dutch. However, for the beginning C++ programmer, a good book in English is "Accelerated C++" by Koenig and Moo.
