Happy programming!
C... C++ there really isn't a difference in terms of learning rudimentary programming leading up to MQL. You even said it yourself in Lesson1. Guru, please don't think that I was trying to degrade the value of your courses. In fact, that is how I learned mql. The question was where to find references, and as your's was the first, I thought I would throw out what helped me out. The ‘Dummies’ guides assume no programming knowledge like your guides, but for some out there like me who prefer to have the 3” thick desk reference, the Dummy guide makes it VERY easy for someone with absolutely no programming experience to learn the basics. You’re right, I guess he wouldn’t need to have the knowledge of OOP… possibly C could be better, but after going to the bookstore and poking my nose through many books, it’s the one that was the easiest to understand….for me….a green horn newbie!

PS Thanks for the courses!
