Where can I get information on C or C++ programming?
Please note this is an MIT libraries service and questions should go through them https://libraries.mit.edu/ask/ |
Unfortunately, OLC does not have the capability to help with detailed questions about programming. In general, problems of this nature require amounts of time and attention that consultants are not capable of providing, except in rare circumstances.
PLEASE BE AWARE that if an attempt is made to help with your problem, there are no guarantees that we will have the resources to completely solve it. Priority must be given to questions that fall into the domains which we support; therefore, it may be necessary to resolve your question if we cannot provide any additional assistance without considerable effort.
Here are some other resources you can consult should we be unable to help completely.
