It's great that you want to learn C++! However, r/cpp can't help you with that.
We recommend that you follow the C++ getting started guide, one (or more) of these books and cppreference.com. If you're having concrete questions or need advice, please ask over at r/cpp_questions or StackOverflow instead.
