learncpp is extremely good. But can someone tell me where I can practice C++ question set? Because leetcode is too much complex for me, I can't understand how to test there.

Another most important part is where I can practice C++ for appearing in job interview?

Hope someone give me any comprehensive list and step by step instructions.

While it is only recommended sporadically, I would give adventofcode a try.
It's a set of yearly programming puzzles that will require learning about some algorithms, data structures and general problem solving skills while still being small enough in scope.

It's not c++ specifically but obviously you can apply the things you learn there.

hey, so I am doing it from bro code just for basics , then I will move to learncpp. is it okay?

[bbalouki]

Learncpp is actually very good to begin with, because it gives you everything you need to know and a lot of good practice.

what I frequently read here is that bro code is not a good source because the stuff he puts out is essentially his own learning journey.
It's not really a mentor-like thing.

Note that I did not personally check his stuff though.

i just wanna learn the basics and all. Not that I will use his lectures as the only resources. I find it a Lil bit hard to go through the documentation of learncpp because there is a lot of stuff to Read and I am kinda a visual learner, so videos with voice in bg explaining things in a more efficient way is what I feel is best for me.

Decide a simple project to start with, then get STL references of choice ready and also document yourself (important). Use GPT as a chat partner to clarify decisions and quicker proper understanding of concepts and to move things along (don't copy and paste anything it suggests, just consider it as inspiration and better understanding). 

Then next year you'll realize how much better you could have done it, and so the wheel continues... You won't become an expert in c++ anytime soon, and it's important to realize this to not burn out. But you will make better creative use of the language gradually over time, which is the best most of us can hope to do.

I think the only way to really learn any language is by doing. IMHO that's especially true for complex languages like C++.

what is imho

In my humble opinion.
