Watch out.. the HTML police are going to get you.


My Java recommendations:
- Learning Java (O'Reilly)
- Java Examples in a nutshell (O'Reilly, covers old JDK but it's still
great)

Once you get those down:

- Java, Mastering the JFC series from Sun

Where can I find some good info on gcc and g++ and how they compare to other compilers.  Sorry if my question is poorly stated, I am a programming newbie. Thanks.
