but see, as you said you remember whatever the command or line of code and just memorize it. In the future, if u need to use that, will you know what it means or do you just remeber, "o i put this here or that there". Your not understanding the meaning of what the codes doing, just knowing that this word goes there. I'd like to get away from just memorizing and try grasp and understand, even the basics.
btw: C++ vocab? importent or not.
is there like a database of command words with meanings.
im more of a vocab> definition person
thanks for all the help so far!

For API use the MSDN, it explains everything for each API.
As for other key words.. you wont find a great resource as each compiler has it's own macros and such for code. The most you can find is common keywords, which you can just google for help with those.

Mega me and you think differently.
When i read something i can see how it works, if i don't know an api i will look it up. So im not just memorizing positions. I see how everything works in regards to windows and connect it together. You misunderstood me

I suggest msdn and google. Although real life lessons are always good. Because you have somebody right there who knows this and can answer all your questions.

I learned C by my own, it was a hobby. Just search/read code and you'll get it. But don't stay on something too long, always progress and learn.

Work from the bottom up, don't dive into the language in the middle somewhere with a project you know you wont understand and will be constantly asking questions or googling for. Do something basic to begin with. Most people I've seen start with a calculator. Try that. It will teach you some syntax of using math functions. Which is good to learn early as you will always be using math.
Make sure to study what you are reading if you are reading tutorials and such, don't just skimp and copy/paste code cause you will never learn doing that. Don't rush yourself either, find a good pace that you feel comfortable learning at and stick with it.
