#208736 — OT: Newbie friendly C++ list

Fromrhkramer@gmail.com
Date2019-05-17 17:00 +0200
SubjectOT: Newbie friendly C++ list
Message-ID<xYMuZ-I7-3@gated-at.bofh.it>
Background: I've never fully (or even mostly / sufficiently) grokked C or C++, 
but now I'm in the position of having (or at least wanting) to review (and, 
ideally, modify) a large program written in C++ (scintilla / scite).

Question: I would like to find one (or a small number) of "newbie friendly" 
email lists where I could ask various questions.  

Aside: I much prefer a mail list to a forum or a, hmm what't the word -- one 
of those real time messaging type things where you post a question and the 
people that are online at the time see the question and might answer it.  I 
have and will occasionally continue to use those, but I like mail lists best.

(Aside: because debian-user is a list that I try to pay attention to, and 
often get answers even to OT questions, I may pose some of the questions 
here.)

Thanks!!

That's IRC.

Dunno about mailing lists, but the usenet groups comp.lang.c and
comp.lang.c++ have put up with my noob questions -- provided that I at
least show some effort of trying to get the thing.

And even though you don't prefer them, there are IRC chatrooms focused
on the topic(e.g. ##programming on freenode)
