Reddit mentions of Tour of C++, A (C++ In-Depth Series)

Honestly, your best bet would probably be to read a textbook/reference on the language.

Stroustrup's "The C++ Programming Language" is quite good. If you want something more condensed, you could also check out his "A Tour of C++", which is much of the same material in a much smaller package.

If you're very far already (using the language for over a year, for instance) you could try to fix the gaps by watching Going Native talks and reading A Tour of C++. If you're just starting out, I suggest either getting C++ Primer or The C++ Programming Language and working through that.

Before anything, I want to ask if you're really going to work with C, whose support in visual studio is really poor, or if you're going to work with C++. My question is: are you sure you'll be working with C? Isn't it C++?

I've seen a lot of people say C when they mean C++. Given how bad is the C support in visual studio, I imagine this may be your case (i.e. someone told you that you'll be working with C programming using the Visual Studio IDE).

If this is really C, then I don't have much to give you, but if you'll be working with C++, then there are some to consider.

I know there are books targeted at teaching C++ together with the Visual Studio tooling. I don't know if they're any good though.

Microsoft has its channel9 website. It has several videos covering how to use Visual Studio and also several videos on C++. Here are some of their video series which seem good:

• https://channel9.msdn.com/Series/cplusplus-language-library (one of the teachers here seems to be Kate Gregory, who has given an interesting talk (IMO) at cppcon about teaching C++)
  
• https://channel9.msdn.com/Blogs/Sam/C-Language-Programming-with-Visual-Studio-2010-Ultimate-Pro-or-VC-Express - This one seems to be about C (not C++) on visual studio.
  
• https://channel9.msdn.com/Shows/The+Knowledge+Chamber/C-A-Language-for-Modern-Times - In there you'll also find some "isolated videos" like this one (like the previous one), which don't seem to be part of any series but are interesting anyway.
  
• https://channel9.msdn.com/Events/GoingNative/GoingNative-2012 - In here you can find videos about this GoingNative conference, which is pretty much about C++ and the importance of native code. This is fairly advanced, but that's the sort of thing you can find as well.
  
• https://channel9.msdn.com/Series/C9-Lectures-Stephan-T-Lavavej-Core-C- - This is a series of videos by one of the people at MS who is part of their C++ standard library team (Lavavej). It covers core C++, which is pretty much the C++ language (I've watched some of these lectures and found them really helpful).
  
• https://channel9.msdn.com/Series/C9-Lectures-Stephan-T-Lavavej-Standard-Template-Library-STL- - Like above, by the same person, but this one is about the C++ standard library (whereas the previous one is about the core of the C++ language)
  
• https://www.youtube.com/user/CppCon - This is the youtube channel for the cppcon. You'll find tons of presentations in here. Several of them actually can be watched by a beginner C++ programmer (this is specially in your case given you're already a programmer) and be understood. Some of them can help you learn about C++ programming.
  
  A book I really liked is Accelerated C++, by Andrew Koenig and Barbara Moo (https://www.amazon.com/Accelerated-C-Practical-Programming-Example/dp/020170353X/). It's not very up to date considering how C++ changed since this book's publication date, but it's still good as an introduction IMO.
  
  For modern C++ introduction book, you can take Bjarne's A Tour of C++ (https://www.amazon.com/Tour-C--Depth-ebook/dp/B00F8CWGOS/).
  
  All of these materials I've posted in here are supposing you're interesting in getting up to speed fast. I believe Kate Gregory's course and Lavavej's two series will really helpful.

The Definitive List of books is in the sidebar. Which one you want depends (somewhat) sensitively on how much experience you have programming in other languages as well as C++. If you are new to the language but not to programming, Bjarne's A Tour of C++ can be read in a few hours and provides you with all of the essentials you need to get started in C++.

I'm not as familiar with Qt, but I have read the Qt 4.0 book. However, there are some newer books that cover Qt 5.0.
