    Resources for learning C++ for Finance

    I'm looking to learn C++, specifically for use in the finance while I have some spare time until I find a new job.

    Anyone know any good web resources/books for this?

    I found this and I am reading through it, although there might be some better things to read first...

    Cheers

    numerical recipes in C is pretty much the defacto standard, learning some F# wouldn't go a miss either.

    People like London Financial Studies do a very good intensive course in C++ for quants.

    Not going on a course, can't pay the ridiculous fees - will have to make future employers do that

    Thanks, will look at that book. Is this the right one?

    sounds right, but without seeing the picture can't really say.

    Tommorow is a day of chaos, but if i get chance i'll goto our library and write down the ISBN of the latest version.
